Description

java.lang.NullPointerException
    at org.apache.pig.impl.PigContext.setJobtrackerLocation(PigContext.java:425)
    ... (the rest of the stacktrace is my own servlet code)

The code:

final PigContext pigContext = new PigContext(ExecType.MAPREDUCE);
pigContext.setJobtrackerLocation(configuration.get("mapred.job.tracker"));
pigContext.setFilesystemLocation(configuration.get("fs.default.name"));
        
final PigServer pigServer = new PigServer(pigContext);

Where configuration is a org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration object initialized with spring framework.
