1. Re: Theme No Selection Leads to Null Pointer Selection
Hi,
try to delete the portal's database, then restart jboss.
This should reset all settings including the theme.

2. Re: Theme No Selection Leads to Null Pointer Selection
Yes, thanks! Moving the whole data subdirectory out and restarting worked.
Obviously, if I had somethng worth saving, this would not have been the right solution. I might yet need to figure out Hibernate.
I'll post a bug report (as soon as I figure out how to do that).
Thanks again.

I am unable to replicate the issue in CR2. Can you please try and see if it makes a difference?

Yes, I received the same error in CR2. This is under Fedora Core 5 using Firefox. Here is what I did:
1. Rebooted my system.
2. Cleared out my /usr/local/jboss directory.
3. Followed this procedure to install a clean CR2

4. Surfed to the portal.
5. Logged in as admin.
6. Expanded root in the management console. Selected default. Selected Themes. Selected "no selection". Clicked update. I get this error:
HTTP Status 500 -

I only included the top part of the chain but can include it all if needed. I get this error now no matter what I do.

I am new to JBoss. I recently downloaded Portal 2.4CR1 and installed it on Fedora Core 5. I was experimenting with the various theme selections. After trying each of the other four, I tried "No Selection". Now I get a HTTP 500 error with a Null Pointer Exception no matter where I go. I'll try to figure out Hibernate and see if I can reset it. Maybe. Or perhaps, I'll just reinstall from scratch since I haven't done much yet.
Anyway, if someone has a quick-and-dirty to fix this, I would appreciate it.
Thanks.

But how can I remove my database with JBoss Portal Bundled version (jboss-portal-2.4.0-bundled running on windows)
