hi , I click and browse through some of the features accessing applets in the application, quite often I get the following "Null Pointer Exception" in the java console. I really do not understand the cause of the problem.I am using tomcat4.1.
the error is : Exception in thread "Thread-47" java.lang.NullPointerException at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPanel.paint(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPanel.setImage(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPanel.setCustomImage(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.getGrayBoxPanel(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.paintGrayBox(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.repaintGrayBox(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.access$000(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) Next time when I repeat the same scenario I get the following: Exception in thread "Thread-182" java.lang.NullPointerException at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPanel.paint(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPanel.setImage(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPanel.setCustomImage(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.getGrayBoxPanel(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.paintGrayBox(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.repaintGrayBox(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter.access$000(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.util.GrayBoxPainter$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) I do not really know if it is really a Tomcat issue or not.. Any help or pointers would be of immense help.
