Hi all:

I've been strugling with this weird problem with no luck, so I finally decided to post it to the list hoping someone has any clue on how to go on. I have a beatiful webapp (well, a webapp) that has been working flawlessly with different Tomcat versions from 5.5.9 to 5.5.25. Exactly the same war file across vesions, no problem. But then Tomcat 5.5.26 was released and my webapp stopped working. Strange, uh?

Are the requests which trigger the exception all POST requests? If so, it is maybe

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44494

which came with 5.5.26 and applies to POST requests biugger than 8KB.

Rainer

The funny point is that failure is coming from SAXParser complaining about null pointer on its argument. Of course the first thing was looking at my app, but I didn't find anything; after all, if there wasn't any null pointer till 5.5.25 and the app hasn't been changed, why should it appear now?

I though about some dirty-work-dir issue, so I decided to clean all run, work and temp directories related with Tomcat. I redeployed the app. And still the same. I configured every log to DEBUG and checked, but still nothing enlightening.

And then, to my confusion, I downgraded back to 5.5.25 and everything worked again. As a workaround I'm stuck with 5.5.25, but I wonder if I'll have to keep like this forever :-S.

        A snippet of the error message, just in case it rings a bell:

**

Thanks in advance,
