Re: Null Pointer from org.apache.axis.message.MessageElement.addTextNode

[Chris Mannion]

In case anyone else has this problem, I've determined it was being caused by a conflicting copies of saaj.jar, the javax.xml library.

Start TCPmon on some port and redirect the content to the tomcat host and port. Make sure you give tcpmon port in the portQName string rather than the tomcat port   Assuming I would like to start tcpmon on 9090 and have my tomcat on local machine 8080. I'd start tcpmon as java org.apache.axis.utils.tcpmon 9090 localhost 8080   HTH Jayachandra   On 9/5/05, Chris Mannion <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi   I'm getting a null pointer exception on invoking
