There are two possibilities I can think of right now:
1. Something is calling Environment.setApplicationProperties(null)
which produces a NullPointerException before the System.out can tell
you about it. This seems unlikely but is easy to check with another
System.out. I guess there might be a clearApplicationProperties()
method also...
2. you have 2 classloaders loading the Environment class. I don't
really see how this would be happening either but again is pretty easy
to check.
Code suggestions inline...
thanks

public static String getDesignContext(){
System.out.println("Environment classloader during access:" +

return applicationProperties.getCtxDesign(); //exception thrown here
}
}
The code should be ok because like I said everything works when
started on
GEP, but if deployed as a standalone it doesn't work. I also tried
to deploy
the application on GEP and then start the same server manually but no
difference.
I don't think you have a classloading problem, since you can get to
the code in Environment just fine.
I think the problem is that Environment.applicationContext is null.
What is supposed to initialize it?
