= Solution

The <characteristic equation> is $(r-1)^2=0$, so the <repeated-root constant-coefficient differential equation> gives the <general solution> $y=(A+Bx)e^x$. The first <boundary condition> gives $A=0$, and the second gives $B\pi e^\pi=\pi e^\pi$, hence $B=1$. Therefore
$$
\boxed{y(x)=xe^x}.
