When I start Alfresco I got this error:

It seems that Alfresco doesn't found the administrator user "admin".
Any idea??
Thanks.

As a hint,

the NPE is not because of the Admin user name, it is because one if the chained authentication services is null.

I would suggest, your authen chain contains one null value and therefore check the chaining configuration (property authentication.chain=…)in the alfresco-global.properties file?
