RequestDispatcher error

[Girish Vasmatkar]

Hi ranchers,
i am using a servlet to check for user's login information and if everything goes right i am creating a bean named userBean and setting its properties and then putting that userBean into session scope and then forwarding the request to another jsp which will display the user's profile similar to what Orkut does.here is code sample
Assume i have set userBean and then i am writing this code


HttpSession session=request.getSession();
session.setAttribute("userBean",userBean);
rd=request.getRequestDispatcher("/profile.jsp");
rd.forward(request,response);
rd.forward(request,response);


WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS CODE PLEASE HELP ME...THANK YOU

why you try to forward 2 times!!!

Hi, Girish,

Can you tell us exactly what is the error you are getting? (or were you really just forwarding it twice?)

sorry ,i am not trying to forward it 2 times ,it's my mistake i am only forwarding 1 time and the exception i am gettin is --attemted bean operation on null object.

[Amit Ghorpade]

Are you getting the exception in the servlet or in th forwarded JSP?
Have you instantiated the bean properly?
I dont see any bean instantiation code above.



Hope this helps

My dear friend i have done bean instantiation like

UserBean userBean=new UserBean();

the error message i am getting at tomcat window is

"Attempted bean operation on null object"
Thanks

I could have posted the whole code but i am not allowed to post it because when i am posting the code the forum is not allowing my code to be posted.
