[opencms-dev] Can't create new page.

[Jeff Schoby]

Ok...brand spanking new to OpenCMS.  

Installed the latest version of Tomcat, J2sdk, and mysql.

put opencms.war file in CATALINA_HOME/webapps

Went through the install everything is fine and dandy.

I login to opencms with the default admin user and password.

When the workspace comes up, I select the offline project.

I then try to create a new page in the Root folder (or release folder
for that matter)

Type in the name, title, etc  - use empty template and empty body 
(doesn't matter which template I use tho)

Finish.

I get a 500 server error with a whole slew of java errors:

HTTP Status 500 -

type Exception report

message

it from fulfilling this request.
