    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5769?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14141785#comment-14141785 ]

Deepak Dixit commented on OFBIZ-5769:
-------------------------------------

Steps to regenerate the issue
- Goto any 'web.xml' file for any application.
- Comment out or delete the allowed paths in init-param .
- Then access the particular application like BI or Webtools.

Actual Result:  A NPE occurs and the page is not displayed.
Expected Result: User should be able the access the application.

After applying the patch the NPE stops occuring and the application works as expected.

> In web.xml, when 'allowPaths' init param is empty, a null pointer exception results.
> Solution:
> When web.xml/allowPaths is empty, it should mean disable the allowPaths check altogether.
