That looks something like a problem with your Java Servlet engine. Since you are on W2k I take it you are using IIS for the Web server. What java engine are you using (Tomcat, ServletExec, ...) and what version? Also what version Java is installed on the server? You may also want to post the complete error as written to the Mid-Tier log (Usually in \Program Files\AR System\Mid-Tier\work\logs but you can see exactly where the logs are from the Mid-Tier configuration web page.

The Mid-Tier is also installed on the same machine as the Remedy server. I am attempting to send some data to the remedy server using a Web Service and getting the following error: <faultcode>soapenv:Server.userException</faultcode> <faultstring>java.lang.NullPointerException</faultstring> I tried to simplify things by using a simple form with a character field. I used both the get and create operations and end up with the same error. I thought this could be due to some invalid characters either in the data or the field names but it wasn't to be. Here is the xml sent to the remedy Web Server: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";> <soapenv:Body> <soapenv:Fault> <faultcode>soapenv:Server.userException</faultcode> <faultstring>java.lang.NullPointerException</faultstring> <detail /> </soapenv:Fault> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> Have you seen this error before? Ah! I am using SOAPSonar to test my Web Service. I used the same client in the past to test some SAP Web Service and it worked fine.
