#1 Install does not work

[smartin]

Hi All,

I followed your instructions in the readme.txt and I could not get this application working. I could not find exactly where to modify the db user and password I assume it was WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/persistence.xml. Even once edited I could not create a login. Also when I execute the server-init, nothing happens and I get brought back to the login page within a second.

When I try to get a login I get the following error.

java.lang.NullPointerException
it.unical.inf.wsportal.server.db.SqlStatement.signUp(SqlStatement.java:110)
it.unical.inf.wsportal.server.servlet.SignUp.doPost(SignUp.java:52)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:647)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:729)

It looks to me like a db issue. I am not a developer but am a sys admin and I have installed many webapps but I cannot seem to get this one working. Is there another place where I need to modify the db connection? Also you might want to modify your readme to include the location where the user needs to modify the db connections.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Shaun
