Re: Getting hibername / database setup

Aaron,
    If you send me a SourceForge username I can add you to the project 
and you check checkout the source as a developer.  There never seems to 
be much problem with that.  If you look in the logs of Tomcat, what do 
you get?  There is likely a Hibernate error behind the scenes causing 
that NPE.
