> First of all the original message says " java.lang.NullPointerException at 
edu.internet2.middleware.grouper.SessionHelper.stop(Unknown Source)", which
means the java wasn't compiled with the -g flag (I think).  Did you build
this or get the binary?  I think all builds of grouper should always have
the -g flag so we can properly support it (i.e. know which line number the
problem is).  In fact, I would be happy if it wasn't even possible to build
without -g, or "compile.debug" in buildGrouper.properties.  Unless to figure
out problems you want to reconfigure, recompile, redeploy, reproduce, recopy
error stack...  :)

Little experienced with java and tomcat and not the system administrator
of the development system at my disposal, I simply [try to] follow 
instructions
in the documentation ;-)  Happy to do a -g build if given specific 
instructions
on how.

the name "jdbc".  Not sure what the solution is here, maybe to run the tests,
maybe you could temporarily resurrect the subject source "jdbc" that is in the
default sources.xml, and the tables too... (is this the right answer?   Can we
eventually change the tests so that source doesn't have to be in sources.xml?
might be possible to workaround it).  Obviously you need to change the db url,
schema, pass to be that of the grouper db, and hopefully the subject tables 
are
there.

Tis true, I changed the <id> for my jdbc source, dutifully following the 
example in
the source api documentation:

  <!-- Example JDBC Person Resolver -->
  <source 
adapterClass="edu.internet2.middleware.subject.provider.JDBCSourceAdapter">
    <id>uc</id>
    <name>Bogus UC People</name>
    <type>person</type>

For fun, will test again with "jdbc" restored.
