tomcat Exception in performActionNamed()

Hi,

When I try to deploy to tomcat 5 I get the following exception:

  14:57:18,252   OFF [HttpProcessor[8080][4]] (Log.NSLogErr:1546  
appendln) - <DirectAction>: Exception in performActionNamed() on the  
action "default" with the message: java.lang.NullPointerException
14:57:18,257 DEBUG [HttpProcessor[8080][4]] (Log.NSLogDebug:1546  
appendln) - java.lang.NullPointerException
	at com.webobjects.appserver._private.WOComponentDefinition.<init> 
(WOComponentDefinition.java:84)
	at  
com.webobjects.appserver.WOApplication._componentDefinitionFromClassName 
d(WOApplication.java:2353)
	at com.webobjects.appserver.WOApplication._componentDefinition 
(WOApplication.java:2448)
	at com.webobjects.appserver.WOApplication.pageWithName 
(WOApplication.java:1943)
	at com.webobjects.appserver.WOAction.pageWithName(WOAction.java:98)
	at DirectAction.defaultAction(DirectAction.java:21)


So I overrode  Application.dispatchRequest()  to catch any exceptions  
and pass them to handleException

And i still have the above error plus

  14:57:18,260   OFF [HttpProcessor[8080][4]] (Log.NSLogErr:1546  
appendln) -  
<com.webobjects.appserver._private.WODirectActionRequestHandler>:  
Exception while handling action named "default" on action class  
"null" :java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
14:57:18,266 DEBUG [HttpProcessor[8080][4]] (Log.NSLogDebug:1546  
appendln) - java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
	at  
com.webobjects.appserver._private.WOActionRequestHandler._handleRequest( 
WOActionRequestHandler.java:250)
	at  
com.webobjects.appserver._private.WOActionRequestHandler.handleRequest 
(WOActionRequestHandler.java:142)
	at com.webobjects.appserver.WOApplication.dispatchRequest 
(WOApplication.java:1306)
	at Application.dispatchRequest(Application.java:207)


And all line 21 of DirectAction.java (the line with the NPE) says is

Main nextPage = (Main)pageWithName("Main");

Any Ideas why this would be causing problems?
