NullPointerException in JBoss Web due to JBWEB-157
Issue
- I've set up RewriteRules like the following using HTTP_HOST:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?someDomain\.com [OR,NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?someOther\.com [OR,NC]
- Now I see the following exception:
ERROR [org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter] (http-192.168.111.130-80-2) An exception or error occurred in the container during the request processing
java.lang.NullPointerException
