Hi, Very recently I update the source and built again and after I tried to access xwiki it failed with following stack trace: 2008-02-10 23:33:40,218 [] [http-9080-Processor25] WARN action.RequestProcessor - Unhandled Exception thrown: class java.lang.NullPointerException 2008-02-10 23:33:40,234 [] [http-9080-Processor25] ERROR [/xwiki].[action] - Servlet.service() for servlet action threw exception java.lang.NullPointerException at java.util.Hashtable.put(Unknown Source) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.Utils.prepareContext(Utils.java:266) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiAction.execute(XWikiAction.java:111) at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionPerform(RequestProcessor.java:431) at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:236) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1196) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doGet(ActionServlet.java:414) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:252) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:173) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.SetCharacterEncodingFilter.doFilter(SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java:117) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:202) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:173) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperValve.java:213) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:178) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.java:126) at org.apache.catalina.cluster.tcp.ReplicationValve.invoke(ReplicationValve.java:346) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:105) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:107) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:148) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:869) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.processConnection(Http11BaseProtocol.java:664) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint.processSocket(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:527) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.runIt(LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.java:80) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:684) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) In the code of Utils.java I see the following code added: // This is a temporary bridge so that non XWiki component classes can lookup XWiki // components. A ComponentManager instance has been set up in the Servlet Context and // we now populate the XWiki Context with it so that code can then use it to look up // components. // This is of course not necessary for XWiki components since they just need to implement // the Composable interface to get access to the Component Manager or better they simply // need to define the Components they require as field members and configure the Plexus // deployment descriptors (components.xml) so that they are automatically injected. ComponentManager componentManager = (ComponentManager) engine_context.getAttribute(ComponentManager.class.getName()); context.put(ComponentManager.class.getName(), componentManager); I debugged and checked that componentManager is being fetched as null. Can you please help me what I may be doing wrong. I have updated the jars xwiki-core-plexus-1.3-SNAPSHOT.jar and xwiki-core-component-1.3-SNAPSHOT.jar so I don't think it may be related to some old source.
