NullPointerException during startup

["Jawaharlal, Sridhar" <Sr...@GTECH.COM>]

I'm trying to install Jetspeed. My system config is: Windows 2000,
JDK1.3.0_02, Tomcat 4.0 b3, Jetspeed 1.3a1. I have included the console
output.

Thanks.

The null pointer is caused by a difference of URL formats between Catalina
and Tomcat 3.2. The only impact I could see is that the portlet registry
does not refresh automatically on Catalina (you need to start/stop the server).

There's a fix in the latest CVS to remove the exception.
I'll try to completely fix the issue before the 1.3a2 release.
