We have some code that uses XPathFactory.newInstance(). The code tests fine in the Eclipse debugger, but when we perform a Maven build and deploy the WAR to Tomcat, XPathFactory.newInstance() throws a NullPointerException:
java.lang.NullPointerException at javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryFinder._newFactory(XPathFactoryFinder.java:222) at javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryFinder.newFactory(XPathFactoryFinder.java:143) at javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory.newInstance(XPathFactory.java:185) at javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory.newInstance(XPathFactory.java:99) at com.myorg.myapp.ws.notification.impl.ExtnMessagePatternFilter.accepts(ExtnMessagePatternFilter.java:69) at org.apache.muse.ws.notification.impl.FilterCollection.accepts(FilterCollection.java:64) at com.myorg.myapp.ws.notification.impl.BufferedSubscriptionManager.publish(BufferedSubscriptionManager.java:73) at com.myorg.myapp.ws.notification.impl.NewsNotificationProducer.publish(NewsNotificationProducer.java:38) at org.apache.muse.ws.notification.impl.SimpleNotificationProducer.publish(SimpleNotificationProducer.java:420) at com.myorg.myapp.ws.handler.DDSHandler.run(DDSHandler.java:304) at com.myorg.commons.util.reactor.ReactorAdapter.run(ReactorAdapter.java:19) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:885) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:907) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Any ideas what may be going wrong? -David -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/XPathFactory.newInstance%28%29-throwing-NullPointerException-in-Tomcat-tf4243398.html#a12074973 Sent from the Apache XML - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
