NULL pointer exception

["Ordway, Ryan" <Ry...@oregonstate.edu>]

	When attempting to do a search through the webapp,
I'm getting a NULL pointer exception. I'm not talking
to Tomcat directly, I'm using mod_jk to connect Apache to
Tomcat. I noticed that Nutch is trying to reference /search.jsp,
but I've got the webapp JkMount'ed as /nutch/, so the URL
should be /nutch/search.jsp. The jsp's seem to reference things
in different ways, in some cases they will reference /search.jsp
and sometimes ../search.jsp. Is this how it's supposed to be?
Could this be the source of my NULL pointer exceptions?

	Here is my exception:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException
	
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.ja
va:372)
	
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:292)
	
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:236)
	javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)

	FYI, I've got Apache rewriting the /*.jsp URLs to /nutch/*.jsp,
so that may be causing a problem too...

	Thanks,

	Ryan

Re: NULL pointer exception

Did you start in the directory where the index
resides?  Like literally cd to where the index is and
then start from there?  Seems like I might have been
getting at least a similar error and that helped me. 
I would also suggest trying just straight up tomcat if
possible, just to see if you can get it going at all
first.

Good luck!
