Mike, Your confusion is understandable. A NullPointerException is a generic error (in a way) that is too specific - or perhaps I should say "symptomatic" instead of being "causal". It's rather like saying "the patient has a fever". Sure it's technically correct but it doesn't give you much more

I'm with Dave. I'd look for some kind of file code - maybe even cf - that's not too careful with paths. I'd also check your "cache real paths" attribute in the cf admin. Not sure why I think so but it may be fooling some of your code with regard to where files live. And of course you should think
