#609 Dogtag 10: JSSSocketFactory init - Null pointer exception thrown
Closed: Duplicate Opened by mharmsen.

While testing Dogtag 10.0.2, it was noticed that whenever a CA, KRA, OCSP, or TKS subsystem was started using 'systemctl start pki-tomcatd@.service', JSS would throw an exception that appeared in the '/var/log/pki//catalina.out' file:

  • JSSSocketFactory init - exception thrown:java.lang.NullPointerException

The following two versions of JSS both displayed this behavior on 32-bit i686 Fedora 18:

  • jss-4.2.6-25.fc18.i686
  • jss-4.2.6-26.fc18.i686

It was also reported that this behavior also occurred on 64-bit x86_64 Fedora 18 using the following version of JSS:

  • jss-4.2.6-25.fc18.x86_64

This problem is caused by missing 'clientauth' parameter (not clientAuth) in the element in server.xml.

I think this might be the tomcatjss bug I found earlier:
Bug 1058366 - NullPointerException in tomcatjss searching for attribute "clientauth"

Proposed Milestone: 10.2.1 (per CS Meeting of 09/17/2014)

cfu to close based upon status of Bugzilla Bug #1058366 - NullPointerException in tomcatjss searching for attribute "clientauth".

I'm pretty sure that this has been fixed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1058366
