upgrade from 1.0 to 1.1 seems to break GenericDataSource

[Mort Coleman]

call to super.init() seems to have NullPointerException and cannot get a connection.

Did anyone have this issue and know a work around?

package com.cmp.servlet;

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.SQLException;

import javax.sql.DataSource;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;

import org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet;

import org.apache.struts.util.GenericDataSource;

import com.cmp.db.IdentifyDatabase;

/**
 * Make sure to identify the default database in use upon 
 * starting/initializing this context.
 *
 * @version 27 February 2002
 */
 public class MowerPartsActionServlet extends ActionServlet{
 
   public void init()
   throws ServletException{
      super.init();
      DataSource dataSource = this.findDataSource(null);
      try{
         Connection conn = dataSource.getConnection();
         IdentifyDatabase.setDB(conn);
         conn.close();
         
         System.out.println("Database detected: " + IdentifyDatabase.getDB());
      } catch (SQLException e){
         this.log("Error getting DB connection.", e);
      }
   }
}
