URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-328
Project: Tapestry
Type: Bug
Components: Framework
Versions: 4.0
Environment: OS X 10.3.9, Tomcat 5.0.30, Powerbook g4
Reporter: Warner Onstine
I had a custom engine implementation specified in my application file which did
not exist. When I attempted to access the application I received the following
error:
java.lang.NullPointerException

It would be better for end devlopers if Tapestry threw a message that said -
cannot find custom Engine - "blah.Engine", please ensure that it is in your
classpath. Or something like that.
