Bug #: 51403
Summary: Avoid NullPointerException in JULI FileHandler if
formatter is misconfigured
Product: Tomcat 7
Version: 7.0.16
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: Catalina
AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
ReportedBy: knst.koli...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
If formatter assigned to org.apache.juli.FileHandler in logging.properties is
misconfigured and fails to load,
the FileHandler starts without formatter and fails with an NPE later.
To reproduce: assign some bogus value to
1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.formatter
When Tomcat starts, the following will be printed at the console:
java.util.logging.ErrorManager: 4
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.juli.FileHandler.openWriter(FileHandler.java:377)
at org.apache.juli.FileHandler.<init>(FileHandler.java:99)
at org.apache.juli.FileHandler.<init>(FileHandler.java:90)
I think we can be more tolerant to this configuration error and fall back to
the default formatter. I will commit a fix shortly.
