Velocity error mesage

from, and what it means?

My wife tries that on me. She solves it by making me leave laptops at
home, and going places where 'internet cafe' don't exist...

Yep. Tossing a panic exception on logger failure is prollie the right
way to go. I am going to try to switch to the log4j ME as the embedded
file logger, after I get the instance changes in, so we can do it
then...
Enjoy the vacation.

Hi Geir,
I don�t have the code right now, I�m on vacation and I
was not even supposed to look at a computer...
But just before leaving, I took a look at my ISP�s
directory structure, and it seems that the Avalon
logger cannot open a log file for writing, (the file I
specified in velocity�s config), for lack of
permission, but it fails silently then, and when
trying to serve a request (so I suppose when trying to
log the "template found..." message and so on), the
whole thing crashes and burns. So maybe an exception
should be thrown at either moment, instead of having
to deal with a mysterious Null Pointer.
bye bye

Double 'huh?' The only things that would be different are classpath and
JVM...
Can you send me your code?

yessir,
I am calling init, and in fact, this is also part of
the error message:
Runtime properties:
file.resource.loader.path =>
/home/sites/web/WEB-INF/template
runtime.log =>
/home/sites/web/WEB-INF/logs/manager/velocity.log
velocimacro.library => [/macros/head.vm,
/macros/altbgcolor.vm]
problem is, it works on my machine and it doesn't work
on my ISP.

It's a NullPointerException :)
I can tell from the trace that you are using my new version that
provides separate runtime instances.
Did you call init?
