Hello People and thank you in advance for your help.

I have a problem deploying webchat.war and I need your valuable help. I'm new to tomcat and openfire.

The error I get while deploying webchat.war on cPanel Tomcat 7 is:

----- START ERROR ------------

HTTP Status 500 - An exception occurred processing JSP page /setup-finished.jsp at line 61

type Exception report

messageAn exception occurred processing JSP page /setup-finished.jsp at line 61

noteThe full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/7.0.42 logs.

---- END OF ERROR ----

My TOMCAT is 7 vrsion, running on cPanel linux server.

The openfire server is different machine.

Any help would be appreciated. I have tried all possible webchat.war that I found on the website!

Thanks again,

Alex
