[Building Sakai] Blackboard

Hi Sam,

 

I did make those changes. I am attaching my components.xml file to this email. I still am getting the same exception that I was before. NullPointerException, when I try to upload the zip file that is in ${TOMCAT_HOME}/archive. 

 

Anything else I might be missing??

 

Regards,

Nguni

Hi Sam,

Thanks again,

Comment out any references to CommonCartridge and uncomment any Bb6 references

 

Look for this line:

 

  <!-- <ref bean="org.sakaiproject.importer.api.ImportFileParser-Bb6"/> -->

 

That needs to be uncommented.

 

If you want announcements to import you need to uncomment this:

 

  <!-- <ref bean="org.sakaiproject.importer.impl.handlers.AnnouncementHandler"/> -->

 

If you want assessments to import, you need to uncomment this:

 

  <!-- <ref bean="org.sakaiproject.importer.impl.handlers.SamigoAssessmentHandler"/> -->

Hi Sam,

I just did those two suggestions, and attached is my components.xml file.

I am still getting the same stacktrace:

1) Did you delete the sakai-import-anouncement directory?

2) Did you delete the bb6 JARs from shared/lib?

3) Can you send your components.xml?
