ECperf problem with J2EE RI

[Thomas Kellerer]

Hello all,

I'm trying run the ECPerf Benchmark tests. To get used to the whole thing
I first deployed it to the J2EE Reference Implementation (because ECPerf
has more or less pre-configured files for it :-).

Deploying went fine and I can start the HTML front end to check if
it was deployed correctly. So everything seems to be installed
properly.

But when I start the driver to run the actual test, it starts
the various background tasks (rmiregistry, agents etc)

The the driver prints: Configuring 1 OrdersAgents...
and then gives me a NullPointerException:

Configuring 1 OrdersAgents...
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at sun.rmi.transport.StreamRemoteCall.exceptionReceivedFromServer(StreamRemoteCall.java:245)
at sun.rmi.transport.StreamRemoteCall.executeCall(StreamRemoteCall.java:220)
at sun.rmi.server.UnicastRef.invoke(UnicastRef.java:122)
at com.sun.ecperf.driver.OrdersAgent_Stub.configure(Unknown Source)
at com.sun.ecperf.driver.Driver.configureAgents(Driver.java:372)
at com.sun.ecperf.driver.Driver.<init>(Driver.java:102)
at com.sun.ecperf.driver.Driver.main(Driver.java:686)

I have poked around in the zillions of configuration files and tried
to find the reason in the source, but I can't figure out what I'm missing here.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
Thomas
