No, there is no nested exception. I was hoping someone would know what
can cause this one.

There are no other ERROR messages before the two lines above. The
previous line in the log is an INFO line about LoginServlet:init at the
end of the various filter/servlet init messages.

If you can tell me where to look or what to do to get more information
I'd be grateful!

No, none. Except that immediately after the one I listed out above,
there is another identical one thrown in error.jsp - evidently the
normal error page can't be rendered either. The unexpected exception
page and the dstest.jsp page mentioned in the install guide work OK,
presumably because they don't use Velocity.

That's what I did to get the error above (it appears both in catalina.out
and roller.log).

Any more suggestions for where to look?

Jon
