You could try and pin down the problem by modifying subjectView.jsp e.g. replace above with <c:out value="${viewObject.name}"/> - or change 'name' for an attribute you know to be present. If this works, you can change the attribute for: isGroup, subjectType and desc and see if it fails on one of those - desc would map to description.

Gary,

Thanks for pointer.   I've narrow down the problem to two things.  One, subjectView.jsp appears to expect the description attribute to be present for the source.  I had my person source description mapped to the description attribute, which isn't populated for persons.  I've changed that mapping to displayName.  Second problem is the viewObject.isGroup attribute.  If I remove the isGroup check  and replace it with "<c:out value="${viewObject.name}"/> " or add "put("isGroup",Boolean.FALSE);" to  SubjectAsMap.java, then everything works fine.

I guess another way to put it is the subjectView.jsp doesn't like null attributes.

Below is my sources.xml file.  Just in case that might help.
