Hi, i am a brand new geronimo user (or at least i am trying to be)
I am trying to deploy already existing applications (EARs), already
working on jboss, without any particular deployment descriptior, on
geronimo.
I always get NPEs at geronimo startup. below you can find the
stacktrace.
it happens if i deploy with geronimo running or if i deploy with
geronimo stopped and then start geronimo.
environment is
- geronimo 2.0.1 with jetty
- os x 10.4.10
- jdk 1.5.0_07
- JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
CurrentJDK/Home

Poking around in the code a little bit it looks to me as if the only
way this could happen is if there is a WEB-INF/web.xml in the war but
it can't be read into a string. Could you check the structure of
your war files and make sure the WEB-INF/web.xml are really files and
not directories and they can be accessed properly (e.g. by unjarring
them and looking at them in an editor, or looking at them in emacs)
