NullPointerException when a badly named jar is put into repository directory
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-1532
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1532
Project: Geronimo
Type: Bug
Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Heikki Linnakangas
Priority: Minor
Attachments: listURIs.diff
I copied a JDBC driver jar to geronimo/repository-directory, thinking that
geronimo would pick it up from there. What I didn't know, is that jars in the
repository need to be named in a particular way.
I then tried to add a Database pool using the wizard. I filled the name and
type in step 1, and clicked next. Instead of step 2, I got a blank screen, and
this stack trace in the log:
14:30:33,322 ERROR [DatabasePoolPortlet] Unable to render portlet
java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.apache.geronimo.console.databasemanager.wizard.DatabasePoolPortlet.loadDriverJARList(DatabasePoolPortlet.java:750)

...
The culprit seems to be the FileSystemRepository.listURIs-method, that doesn't
handle invalid filenames properly, but returns nulls in the array it returns
instead.
