Hi all,
From the raw install (almost, just changed onlineResource and URL tags in
services.xml file), I got the following when trying :
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/
2004-02-17 21:54:12 action: null
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.vfny.geoserver.config.ConfigPlugIn.init(ConfigPlugIn.java:96)
at
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.initModulePlugIns(ActionServlet.java:1158)
at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.init(ActionServlet.java:473)
[cut]
A look at the tomcat console shows this :
org.geotools.validation.xml.ValidationException: An io error occured while
loading the plugin's
at org.geotools.validation.xml.XMLReader.loadPlugIns(XMLReader.java:349)
at
org.vfny.geoserver.global.GeoServerPlugIn.init(GeoServerPlugIn.java:122)
at
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.initModulePlugIns(ActionServlet.java:1158)
[cut]
Caused by: java.io.IOException: Path specified does not have a valid file.
/var/www/webapps/geoserver/data/plugIns
I first thought that (reading the XMLReader.java code) the files from the
plugIns should be writable (canWrite()). There were not (the file owner is
not the servlet process owner). Turning write access didn't change the error
after reloading the application.
I believe the files just need to be readable (canRead(), XMLReader.java, line
341 -- geotools2 --)?
I then noticed that the directory name is plugIns while the real directory is
plugins. Searching in the java source tree, i found the following :
/src/org/vfny/geoserver/action/LoadXMLAction.java:136: File plugInDir =
new File(rootDir, "data/plugIns");
./src/org/vfny/geoserver/action/SaveXMLAction.java:90: File plugInDir
= new File(rootDir, "data/plugIns");
./src/org/vfny/geoserver/global/GeoServerPlugIn.java:118: File
plugInDir = new File(rootDir, "data/plugIns");
I changed the uppercase I into lowercase i, recompile geoserver, and it
worked! Forgot to say that under Linux cases matter

Thanks, havn't tested on linux yet 
should be fixed today, tomorrow morn.
