Urgent help needed, please with java.lang.NullPointerException

[EugenePipko]

Hi all,
Last night, for some unknown (to me) reason, CF8 stopped working. It is installed on Apache 2.2 on Win2K server.
When I try to execute any page OR login to CF Administrator: http://apps04kt/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm, I am getting the following error:
---------------------------------------------
500


java.lang.NullPointerException
at jrun.servlet.JRunRequestDispatcher.invoke(JRunRequestDispatcher.java:283)
at jrun.servlet.ServletEngineService.dispatch(ServletEngineService.java:543)
at jrun.servlet.jrpp.JRunProxyService.invokeRunnable(JRunProxyService.java:203)
at jrunx.scheduler.ThreadPool$DownstreamMetrics.invokeRunnable(ThreadPool.java:320)

at jrunx.scheduler.ThreadPool$UpstreamMetrics.invokeRunnable(ThreadPool.java:266)
at jrunx.scheduler.WorkerThread.run(WorkerThread.java:66)
---------------------------------------------
Please let me know where to look for possible problem.
Thank you,
Eugene

Hi
Are you able to access your root URL. You can start with apache to see if there are any issues with it. You can loor error_log to see if anything is logged there.

Thanks for reply,
I went to our network admin and asked if anytihng was changed on the server.
He pointed out that permisions of the default user were not the same. Changing them fixed it.
