Priority: P2 Bug ID: 53333 Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Summary: NPE is thrown for env-entry without env-entry-type but with injection-target specified Severity: normal Classification: Unclassified OS: All Reporter: violet...@apache.org Hardware: All Status: NEW Version: 7.0.27 Component: Catalina Product: Tomcat 7 Created attachment 28863 --> https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=28863&action=edit Test web application Hi, I have a web application (attached) that specifies env-entry in the web.xml. The env-entry does not specify env-entry-type, but specifies injection-target. When deploying that web application, the exception below is thrown: Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at java.util.Hashtable.put(Hashtable.java:394) at org.apache.catalina.deploy.NamingResources.addEnvironment(NamingResources.java:254) at org.apache.catalina.deploy.WebXml.configureContext(WebXml.java:1195) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.webConfig(ContextConfig.java:1294) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.configureStart(ContextConfig.java:855) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.lifecycleEvent(ContextConfig.java:345) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.java:119) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleBase.java:90) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.startInternal(StandardContext.java:5161) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase.start(LifecycleBase.java:150) Servlet Specification, 14.4 Deployment Descriptor Diagram, describes that use case and how it should be handled: " env-entry element If an injection-target is specified for the environment entry, the enventry- type may be ommitted or MUST match the type of the injection target. If no injection-target is specified, the env-entry-type is required. " I would like to propose a patch (attached) that solves this issue. I'm looking forward for your comments. Thanks Violeta Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Deploy the attached application 2. Request http://localhost:8080/test/TestServlet 3. NPE is thrown 4. Apply the provided patch 5. Request http://localhost:8080/test/TestServlet 6.
