--------------------------------
Key: MAGNOLIA-4466
URL: http://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MAGNOLIA-4466
Project: Magnolia
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public
Affects Versions: 4.5.3
Environment: Tomcat 7.0.26 on OpenJDK 1.6.0_24-b24 on Ubuntu 12.04 on

Reporter: Claus Nielsen
I'm trying to install magnolia for the first time.
I downloaded magnolia-bundled-webapp-4.5.3.war and dumped it in Tomcat's
webapps folder, but when i try to start it it fails with an NPE.
I get this in the localhost log file:

On a 2nd attempt, trying to start the app from Tomcat manager, I got this
similar, but slightly longer, stacktrace:
