Help!!! HTTP Status 500 Error

[linamariep]

Hi. Please help me resolve the error below. We created a JBoss Portal that was working fine when i started tinkering with the layouts and themes. I initially encountered this error with a lay null pointer error which i was able to resolve (through revising the default objec.xml)....however, the problem below still persists. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I am very new to JBoss portal. Wahhh!!!!
