>          Key: AXIS2-701
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-701
>      Project: Apache Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
>         Type: Bug

>   Components: core
>     Versions: 1.0
>  Environment: Windows XP Pro, Tomcat 5.5.12 & BEA Weblogic 8.1.3
>     Reporter: Jeff Peterson
>     Assignee: Deepal Jayasinghe
>     Priority: Blocker

>
> If Axis 2 is deployed as a WAR on Tomcat 5.5.12 or BEA Weblogic 8.1.3 
> (probably others), a NullPointerException occurs when a user attemps to 
> access the Administration page (http://localhost:8080/axis2/axis2-admin/).  
> In addition, the default Version web-service does not appear to be functional 
> (not reported in happyaxis).
> The exception is as follows:
> java.lang.NullPointerException
>       at org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AdminAgent.<init>(AdminAgent.java:76)
>       at 
> org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisAdminServlet.init(AxisAdminServlet.java:58)
>       at

>       at weblogic.kernel.ExecuteThread.execute(ExecuteThread.java:219)
>       at weblogic.kernel.ExecuteThread.run(ExecuteThread.java:178)
> After tracking the exception down in the source, the root cause is at 
> /modules/core/src/org/apache/axis2/deployment/WarBasedAxisConfigurator.java:57
>  and reads:
> repository = config.getServletContext().getRealPath("/WEB-INF");
> As it turns out, when a WAR is deployed but not unpacked by the container, 
> repository will always be set to null.  You can reproduce the error if you 
> set unpackWARs="false" in your tomcat server.xml file.
