Virtualization Server - InvocationTargetException

[krzysiek85]

I have just installed Alfresco-Community-3.2r2-Full-Setup.exe (with all components, on Windows 2008 r2).
I have added to …\tomcat\conf\server.xml

<Context path="" docBase="alfresco" crossContext="true"/>‍

and

<Connector port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1" URIEncoding="UTF-8"               connectionTimeout="20000"                redirectPort="8443" /> <Connector executor="tomcatThreadPool"               port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1"                connectionTimeout="20000"                redirectPort="8443" />‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Now alfresco work fine on http://localhost/.
Next thing was to set password for admin account and ip in …\virtual-tomcat\conf\alfresco-virtserver.properties

I have also set JAVA_HOME variable.

Now I am trying to start  Virtualization Server.

virtual_start.bat‍

But I get InvocationTargetException caused by NullPointerException.

Can you help me?

OK, I managed to do it myself.
I think that alfresco has to run on "/alfresco", not on "/ ".

I deleted
<Context path="" docBase="alfresco" crossContext="true"/>
and added simple redirect page to "/", so when I enter "http://server" I am redirected to "http://server/alfresco".

Now virtualization server works fine.
