Hi,
I am using ApacheDs 1.5.4, after running successfully for a long time, now
getting the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

-----------
what I found is that, the master.db file (in <partition>/system)got
corrupted somehow and which is causing this error and not able to start the
server. So I just replaced the master.db from a fresh installation and it
worked. So my question is, is it okay to replace the master.db file as a
workaround? will it cause any data loss? What does it contain? Please
explain.
