what does this error mean ...

ERROR reading /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/lego/WEB-INF/web.xml
java.lang.NullPointerException
    at org.apache.tomcat.util.xml.XmlMapper.readXml(XmlMapper.java, Compiled Code) ...


I get it when starting the server and only when I add in my web.xml file in the WEB-INF dir.

also, how should a web.xml file look like if calling a servlet from an applet?
