Looking at the source code, line 205 of the ModuleScanner is the line which has the NPE.
204: File[] files = directory.listFiles();
205: for (File file : files) {
So line 204 returns null for some reason. This seems a problem from underlying JDK with the OS. Is CentOS 5.5 a supported platform for JDK1.6?
