    "Manualy" starting Scheduler -> NullpointerException

    erlendjboss

      Hi there!

      I'm pretty new to Jboss and this forum, so is this the correct forum for this issue ?

      I found some posting in this forum for schedule so I took a chance :-)

      Anyway .. I use JBoss 3.0.6 and have tried the schedule example in the 3.0 pdf book. That's just working fine, but when I try to start a new schedule inside another class "manualy" ... I then just get a NullpointerException ... and I'm stuck.

      I first start up the Schedule example in the chap10 ... then from it's constructor I create a Catalog object which try to start a new schedule task "manualy".

      Here is my case and class:

      public class Catalog implements Schedulable

      ...

      public void startSchedule() {

      Scheduler sc = new Scheduler(
      "no.test.Catalog",
      "Catalog2,test,5500,7500,15000",
      "java.lang.String,java.lang.String,long,long,long",
      "NOW",
      10000L,
      -1L);


      sc.startSchedule();

      ---

      But after a few seconds it crash at the last line:

      17:48:02,763 ERROR [Scheduler] operation failed
      java.lang.NullPointerException

      ....

      ??? Do anyone have a clue of what the "nullpointer" should be ?? Do I need to set some other params from the set list of methods Scheduler have ?? hmm

      I just have one jboss-service.xml file for the org.jboss.chap10.ex2.ExSchedulable ... file. I don't have one for no.test.Catalog since I think it's enough to set the params in the Scheduler constructor, or have a misunderstood it complety ?? :-)


      Thank you very much for your help!
