[opencms-dev] Database-import and -export

[Martin Liep Nielsen]

Hi Sascha

It sounds like you don't have a matching structure on your physical
maschine. Your export-path must point to an existing folder on your system,
otherwise you will get a NullPointerException.

You could either create a structure matching your export-path or change your
export-path with the "writeExportPath" method. If you choose the latter
remember to end your path with a "/" otherwise it won't work.

I hope this solves your problem

Best wishes

Hi everybody,
I'm working with Open CMS 40.30 and I have difficulties in accessing the
Import and Export menu in the administration-view. Every time I try to
access I get the following system-error:
User method getExportFiles in calling class
com.opencms.workplace.CmsAdminDatabase throwed an exception.
java.lang.NullPointerException

My export-path ist "/opt/opencms_40.30/export/". Perhaps anybody had the
same problem and lets me know the solution.
Here is some information about my environment:
-SuSE Linux 7.0
-Apache 1.3.12 Server
-Apache Jserv 1.1.2
-IBM JDK 1.3
-MySql
