  | | | InvocationTargetException when starting up Tomcat | InvocationTargetException when starting up Tomcat 2007-08-07 - By Nagesh
Back Hi all, I am installing Tomcat server on a machine that runs Unix but does not have a graphical interface. I have unpacked the zip file (jakarta-tomcat-5 (See http://cat-5.ora-code.com).0.28.zip) and trying to start the server with the script below. The startup always fails with the following message in STDERR. Can someone please advise me, what am I missing ?
Aug 7, 2007 3:08:55 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start INFO: Server startup in 0 ms java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
.at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) .at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:85) .at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:58) .at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl .java:60) .at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:391) .at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.start(Bootstrap.java:287) .at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:425) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException .at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.await(Catalina.java:619) .at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.start(Catalina.java:579) .... 7 more
The STDOUT shows :
Can't load server.xml Can't load server.xml
SCRIPT :

The options in effect are :
Dprogram.name=startup.sh Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000 Djava.endorsed.dirs=$CATALINA_HOME/common/endorsed
