Why is the database configuration not on the logged in section of the admin pages?

Error 500 trying to adjust the headlines display method.

Once I got an error 500 doing that the whole admin side crashed.

You need to be able to re-interpret line breaks "\n" as

tags. Non-expert users are not usually keen on adding their own html.

Sorry, that looks like just a big old bunch of criticisms, like my boss would make of something I'd just written! Apart from what I mentioned there it works very well.

Thanks for the comments.

I fixed the issue with the HTML break statements.

From what I know, the Database Configuration is under "Configuration" on the menu bar.

The 500 error keeps occuring, it seems, because the session which holds the instance of the JavaBean keeps expiring, which crashes the admin login.

I'm trying to make this application as dynamic as possible without going back and forth to a file for getting information. I wanted to store all the file information to the session in a javabean.

However, the actions on the forms receive their target location from a variable in the javabean that is setup once the user logs into the site. However, because the session expired, the NullPointerException occurs.

I could hard code the "response.sendRedirect()" code but then it would work only on a specific system.

Any suggestions around this without going to a file to read the destination?

(Sorry if this sounds confusing).
