Error using Tiles 2.2.1 with Spring 2.5.6

[raja_jan09]

Hi,

I am using tiles 2.2.1 with spring 2.5.6(I cant migrate to advanced version because of company restrictions) in my project.

Deployment was successful in JBOSS but when I try to load it on the browser I am getting this error.

java.lang.NullPointerException
