Incomplete Installation

mirko.tikalsky Dec 21, 2004 5:17 AM

Hello,

I downloaded the jboss 4.0.1 version and installed it (I choose the default install operation).

After some problems I got the server runing. My next step was to test the j2ee tutorial getting to work with jboss.
When using ant to compile the sources I noticed that the client directory in the jboss directory doesn't exist.
So I thought the installation process has not completed correctly.

I tried to uninstall jboss (and wanted to reinstall it with the complete option)
Now my problem is, that I get a NullPointerException when I try to uninstall or install it:

The Same error occurs when I try to install jboss:

Anyone has got an idea what is going wrong?
Any advice is very appreciated.

Thanx
