Hi,
I've got some problems getting OpenCMS set up. Accessing
it using the console as described in step 6 of the install
process works but when trying to access it via the web
interface it fails with the following Exception in jserv.log:

[01/03/2000 18:24:14:765 CET] opencms/com.opencms.core.OpenCmsServlet: init
[01/03/2000 18:24:17:164 CET] java.lang.NullPointerException:

        at org.apache.jserv.JServConnection.run(JServConnection.java:188)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java)       

while I get the following output in opencms.log

[01.03.2000 18:24:16] <opencms_debug> [CmsLauncherManager] OpenCms launcher
"CmsDumpLauncher" with launcher ID 1 loaded successfully.


I'm using Apache 1.3.11/JServ 1.1 on SuSE Linux 6.0. 
The OpenCms release is 40a19...

Any help is appreciated...
