[xwiki-users] Issue with xwiki shortened urls regarding the servlet path

Hi Everyone, I am new to Xwiki so I most probably missing something obvious... I followed the guide to shorten urls @ http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ShortURLs I am currently struggling getting rid of the /bin (Servlet path), everything else works - I have mapped the struts filter to /* as indicated into the doc - I have updated my xwiki.cfg with the following: * xwiki.servletpath= * xwiki.defaultservletpath= I am using the default Jetty container which I am pretty familiar with. I have removed the Root context and "mounted" the xwiki context on "/" with : * <Set name="contextPath">/</Set> When I try to access the wiki without the /bin, the following error occurs (Everything still works fine as soon as I add the /bin prefix): ----- Caused by: org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException: Invocation of method 'hasAccessLevel' in class com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki threw exception java.lang.NullPointerException at /templates /xwikivars.vm[line 6, column 25] at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTMethod.handleInvocationException(ASTMethod.java:243) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTMethod.execute(ASTMethod.java:187) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTReference.execute(ASTReference.java:280) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTReference.value(ASTReference.java:567) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTExpression.value(ASTExpression.java:71) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTSetDirective.render(ASTSetDirective.java:142) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTBlock.render(ASTBlock.java:72) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTIfStatement.render(ASTIfStatement.java:87) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.SimpleNode.render(SimpleNode.java:342) at org.xwiki.velocity.internal.DefaultVelocityEngine.evaluate(DefaultVelocityEngine.java:228) ... 95 more Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.hasAccessLevel(XWiki.java:1676) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.apache.velocity.util.introspection.UberspectImpl$VelMethodImpl.doInvoke(UberspectImpl.java:395) at org.apache.velocity.util.introspection.UberspectImpl$VelMethodImpl.invoke(UberspectImpl.java:384) at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTMethod.execute(ASTMethod.java:173) ------ Anyone got an idea of what is going on ? Thanks a lot in advance ! -- Chris
