Description Kaloyan Raev CLA 2008-02-08 11:35:40 EST 
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a Web 2.5 project. Target it on JBoss v4.2. 
2. Right click on the project > Run As > Run On Server. 

Publishing starts, but crashes with NullPointerException - see below. After a quick look it seems that the problem is in the J2EEFlexProjDeployable, but I cannot be sure. 

Tim, please have a look, too. 



java.lang.NullPointerException

Gorkem develops the generic server, but I don't see any obvious problem with calling getURI().
Comment 2 Silvano Maffeis CLA 2008-02-28 12:08:31 EST 
I have exactly the same problem consistently. Everything is OK after a clean installation of Eclipse EE 3.3. Then I run an update and install all the available DTP and WST updates. The NullPointerException occurs after installing those updates. Workaround: revert to previous configuration.
Comment 3 Carl Anderson CLA 2009-01-15 13:54:42 EST 
Is this problem still occurring?  (I know a lot of work has been done in this area.)
Comment 4 Kaloyan Raev CLA 2009-01-15 14:08:06 EST 
This is not reproducible in 3.0.x and 3.1 codelines any more.
Comment 5 Kaloyan Raev CLA 2009-02-18 10:13:06 EST 
Closing.
