[guvnor-dev] Guvnor help!

Hi guys, My apologies if I have sent this to the wrong mailing-list (again)! I'm very new to Guvnor and Drools and all these exciting tools. I'm working my way through the example that I found here: http://www.jboss.org/feeds/post/jboss_drools_how_to_tuning_guvnor_part_1 and everything was just fine and dandy until I had to run the java code! Unfortunately, I get the following output: RuleAgent(default) INFO (Tue Feb 24 17:20:57 GMT 2009): Configuring with newInstance=false, secondsToRefresh=-1 RuleAgent(default) INFO (Tue Feb 24 17:20:57 GMT 2009): Configuring package provider : URLScanner monitoring URLs: http://localhost:8080/drools-guvnor/org.drools.guvnor.Guvnor/package/myN ewPackage/LATEST RuleAgent(default) EXCEPTION (Tue Feb 24 17:20:58 GMT 2009): null.

This makes me wonder if the package I generated from Guvnor is not correct in some way. If I point a browser at the url, I get the 'opening file' dialog from the browser, asking me to save the file. I'm really lost right now. It seems that Guvnor is a pretty good product and would be a good fit. Can any of you guys please please please help a newbie?
