Re: WorkFlow, images and DAVFileAccess NullPointerException error

Hello,

What is exactly the configuraiton of your site? 
Did you created another new virtual site? Which 
is the default one? What are the languages 
installed? Did you validated the home page for 
the current language?... I just tried to repeat 
your error on a fresh Jahia 4.1_01 install and did not get such an error...
