Youston, I have a problem: the first is that I can't write in Italian (although being a french speaker I can read most of it)
I installed CMDBuild some months ago on a windows server to make a demo. Now I tried it again following the manual installation on a debian linux, runing postgresql 8.1.11, tomcat 5.5.20 and a java jdk 1.5.0 and can't have it running.
The application started fine after some tweaking with catalina.policy, but on the first page I got an error message that I can't get rid of:
----------
java.lang.NullPointerException

I'll dig further but if someone got the same message, it could save me a lot of headache.

You said that you've installed CMDBuild over a debian server... your tomcat was installed with apt from debian's repository?
If so, I suggest you to disable the SecurityManager, which can do some trouble with CMDBuild.
Otherwise, I think there is some problem with your configuration. Please, check the context of your application and the configuration of shark (SharkManager.conf in WEB-INF).
