[opencms-dev] NullPointerException when saving. Problemwithdefault body and locales.

[Olli Aro]

Yes it does and especially because structured content, e.g. news, seems to
work. Maybe the standard content is no longer actively developed and the
long term view is that everything will be structured content...

Problemwithdefault body and locales.

Hey Olli and Jonathan,

thanks for your suggestions, I did add a custom default body similar to 
the one below and it works properly this way. It does seem like a flaw 
that the controlcode has to be edited upon adding a new locale though.

regards,
Bart
