I did a quick clean download last night and just ran the pos app clean
and it worked fine and it uses all the Null devices by default as I
wasn't plugged into anything. For testing the Null printer dumps to the
log files and I got a nice little receipt for the order I placed.
You'll find the Null devices in:
specialpurpose/pos/src/org/ofbiz/pos/jpos/service
Are you running in a non standard container? Or from within Eclipse or
something that is missing the classpath values maybe? I'd certainly move
back towards a clean version without mods like removing pop.Drawer until
you find the real cause of the problem.
