ExtSCRIPT + Jetty 7 NPEs at startup (jetty 6 works)
---------------------------------------------------
Key: EXTSCRIPT-100
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXTSCRIPT-100
Project: MyFaces Extensions Scripting
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: Beta-1
Reporter: Werner Punz
Assignee: Werner Punz
Bruno Aranda has reported following
java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.apache.myfaces.scripting.servlet.CustomChainLoader.setupScriptingPaths(CustomChainLoader.java:76)
at
org.apache.myfaces.scripting.servlet.CustomChainLoader.<init>(CustomChainLoader.java:63)
at
org.apache.myfaces.scripting.servlet.StartupServletContextPluginChainLoader.initChainLoader(StartupServletContextPluginChainLoader.java:116)
A further investigation on the codebase revealed that following happens
aka in reality it does following
String contextRoot = servletContext.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/groovy");
>>> contextRoot = contextRoot.trim();
The problem is that the code did not expect a null since it checks for a
standard /WEB-INF/java and /WEB-INF/groovy.
Now, a quick test under jetty 6 reveals that this never nulls, even if the
directories do not exist, jetty 7s behavior seems to be worse in this regard,
although this is a bug on jettys side, a bypass and a warning is needed so that
the NPE does not occur anymore even if the paths cannot be resolved.
