Ricardo: Thanks so much for picking this up. And thanks for a great wiki.

Result: The machine I was working on has been trashed (It was a sacrificial box used for experimental setups.) Alas, I will try again with the 1.3 release, which I see has been posted in the meantime. I hope your bug-fix campaign is successfull even lacking this 2c. contribution. Truly sorry :( Cheers, Al ----------Ricardo wrote: Hi Alberto, Alberto Squassabia wrote: > Folks: > > I've been trying to install Xwiki on a Suse 10.2 linux > distribution with apache-tomcat-6.0.16 and MySQL > 5.0.26 (the jdbc driver is > mysql-connector-java-5.0.8.jar). > > With either Xwiki 1.2.2 or 1.3.rc1 i get a null > pointer exception when I get to the XWikiPreferences > page i.e. > http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/objectadd/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?classname=XWiki.XWikiPreferences&XWiki.XWikiPreferences_upload_maxsize=33554432&xredirect=http://scrum:8080/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences > for 1.2.2.

Please, just hoping he and others have e while to follow this thread, could you provide us with some extra information? It would be great if you could submit a couple of SQL statements to your database and post here the answers. MySQL Console or MySQL Query Browser could be used for this. Considering the database you are connected to is xwiki: 1. desc xwiki.xwikircs 2. select count(*) from xwiki.xwikircs where xwr_isdiff is null I think this will help to know if we are facing the same problem. Thanks!
