Hi all,

I'm having a problem running/compiling mango using eclipse, and was wondering if someone here might know what I did wrong...

I've followed all the steps described by Andras to build the project in Eclipse, including "add external jar" to add the following jars from ${tomcat.home}/lib

servlet-api
jsp-api

When I try to build, I get several compile errors starting with

[javac] C:\Dev\testing\workspace\Mango\src\com\serotonin\mango\vo\User.java:26: package javax.servlet.http does not exist
[javac] import javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionBindingEvent;

Finally, I copied the files

servlet-api.jar and
jsp-api.jar

into ...war\WEB-INF\lib.

Then the build process successfully compiles and copies files to Tomcat's webapps folder. In fact, it does this even if I remove the "external jars" servlet-api and jsp-api from classpath (using eclipse)!

However, when I try to run the application, it returns a HTTP Status 500 page with a null pointer exception in javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: java.lang.NullPointerException
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.handleJspException(JspServletWrapper.java:536)
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:368)
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:313)
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:260)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:717)

I suspect this is related to the servlet-api jar.

Anyone have any suggestions...?
