I just downloaded the latest OJB code from cvs and this class bears no resemblance to what I have. Therefore, we can ignore this problem.

I debugged the code to find it was crashing in the following methods of org.apache.ojb.broker.PersistenceBrokerFactory class: setCurrentPersistenceBroker() currentPersistenceBroker() I found that in both these methods the following statement: HashMap map = (HashMap) currentBrokerMap.get(); would return a null map object every now and then, and since the code does not check for the null map object it would crash on those occasions. I added the following fix: HashMap map = (HashMap) currentBrokerMap.get(); if (null == map) { currentBrokerMap.set(new HashMap()); map = (HashMap) currentBrokerMap.get(); } if (null != map) { .... } This seems to have solved my problem, but I am not quite sure why the map object is (occasionally) null when it is being initialized in static statement of the class.
