Kinda late to this party but I've gotten the same NPE issue when adding an Executor to an AJP Connector on 6.0.14 (Win2000Server). But, I've also gotten it to work on 6.0.14 on a different machine (Windows XP)... same server.xml. Experimenting with the problem server I found that I could keep the Executor defined but simply not reference it from the Connector and the server started up (probably not much news there.)
Questions: 1) Could this have something to do with a native OS feature somewhere in Tomcat? 2) You mentioned that it worked on 6.0.16... anybody know if there was a fix or if it's just an intermittent issue? 3) Should the Executor work with AJP? I saw a post from earlier last year that said Executors don't support AJP. Thanks all!
