This bug is well reproducible on my machine using Windows 2000SP3 and Windows XP Pro. S1S build 020901 Any attempt to execute a jsp cause a NPE in Request Processor. For more information please see the attachment. Unfortunately I was unable to reproduce it on other our PCs. Both my OSes was just installed so it's not a software clash.

The bug was fixed for Netbeans 3.4. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 24311 ***
This bug should be fixed in S1S since it's well reproducible on all FAT32 based Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
Webapps iteam decided to fix it for jumbo patch. The bug has been fixed in trunk (Issue 24311). This is the diff file that fixes the issue : diff -r1.4 -r1.5 482,490c482,491 < < String newKeyValue = newElement.getAttribute (keyAttribute); < if (newKeyValue!=null) { < NodeList nodeList = element.getElementsByTagName(elementName); < if (nodeList!=null) { < for (int i=0;i<nodeList.getLength();i++){ < if (newKeyValue.equals(((Element) nodeList.item(i)).getAttribute(keyAttribute))){ < showDialog (elementName,keyAttribute,newKeyValue); < return false; --- > if (keyAttribute!=null) { > String newKeyValue = newElement.getAttribute (keyAttribute); > if (newKeyValue!=null) { > NodeList nodeList = element.getElementsByTagName(elementName); > if (nodeList!=null) { > for (int i=0;i<nodeList.getLength ();i++){ > if (newKeyValue.equals(((Element) nodeList.item(i)).getAttribute(keyAttribute))){ > showDialog (elementName,keyAttribute,newKeyValue); > return false; > }
This defect is a duplicate of a defect filed against FFJ4.0. Since this defect existed in FFJ4.0 it is automatically qualified for a waiver for S1S4.1.

I don't understand why this was waived. I did not experience this bug with Orion. In fact, I have three different machines with Orion and Sierra on them, and while the same simple web app works in Orion, it fails in Sierra. Yes, all three of my machines have FAT32 on them, but this is the most common disk format for Windows.
The bug was qualified as a showstopper for Sierra and fixed in the Sierra branch on 9/23/2002. See : http://inf.ebay.sun.com/inf/integrationReport.jsp?id=9236
Verified in S1S 5 Standart Edition build 030217_1 JDK 1.4.0_02, W2K SP2
