JSP component-type using WebScriptProcessor?

[BoJo]

I am trying to use the logout-success component-type provided with the spring-travel sample application:

------------------------------------------
<component-type>
<id>logout-success</id>
<title>Logout Success Component Type</title>
<description>Logout Success Component Type</description>

<!-- Define the rendering processors for this component type -->
<processor mode="view">
<id>jsp</id>
<jsp-path>/WEB-INF/jsp/logout-success.jsp</jsp-path>
</processor>
</component-type>
------------------------------------------

I copied to logout-success.xml file from spring-travel to my sample application. I then created a simple page and added the following component:

------------------------------------------
<component>
<component-type>logout-success</component-type>
<scope>page</scope>
<region-id>top-left</region-id>
<source-id>3column</source-id>
</component>
-------------------------------------------

I know that this component is recognized as an error is generated if I make improper changes to the logout-success.xml file.

The problem is that I get the NullPointerException below when I try to access the page. What is interesting is that the WebScriptProcessor class is on the stack rather than the JSPProcessor. There must be a mistake in the logout-success.xml? Any help appreciated!

Thanks,

Bob

P.S. I have tried to run the spring-travel application stand-alone, but I am getting the error described in THIS forum post.

I discovered the problem. The element name for the type declaration in the in the component definition (above) should be "component-type-id", not "component-type":


<component-type-id>logout-success</component-type-id>

The JSP executes properly!

Thanks,
