tomcat 5.5.7 won't start because of NPE

Using the out of box config files and webapps:

java version "1.5.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_01-b08, mixed mode, sharing)

This appears on catalina.out:

Yup, that was it.  I could have sworn I chwoned all the files but I 
guess I didn't.  Thanks.

The real problem is the lines above it. Either the server.xml is hosed, 
missing, corrupted or Tomcat doesn't have rights to it.

What OS are you running on?
