Turbine Exception on startup (Debian / Ubuntu)
On Debian, Tomcat has an enabled security mode. When running in this mode, SWAMP starts up with the following stacktrace:
StandardWrapperValve[turbine]: Servlet.service() for servlet turbine threw exception java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.turbine.Turbine.doGet(Turbine.java:869) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at ...
because it's not able to write its logfile. Disabling the security mode solves this problem.
