Empty error at end of installation

Hi,

Right, I was wondering if anyone can help me. I've been searching the 
mailing list archives, and can't find any help with my problem.

Basically, I have set up a Redhat Enterprise server with MySQL 4.1.10, 
and j2sdk 1.4.2_07

I've set everything up as per the documentation, and have added a user 
and database to mysql for jahia. I've then installed jahia as per the 
instructions, and have then got on with the installation through the web 
browser part.

I change the default database over to mysql (i changed the jdbc driver 
as well, as it was causing errors here, but now we're sound), and carry 
on. I get to the end and read the summary of my settings and then submit 
the page, and I get a page saying :
    Jahia Configuration Wizard generates some error(s) :

        Error :

And then no error information.

So I then went and set the error logging on the tomcat server to DEBUG, 
and here's what I get in catalina.out:

It's a null pointer exception, and I can't see where it's coming from. 
It seems to be something to do with deployment of the webapp, and a 
friend says it will have something to do with trying to write a null 
value to something in this properties file for the webapp. I haven't put 
any spaces in anything I've entered at all. I just can't figure it out

Anyone lend any help?

Cheers

Martin
