Hi Danilo,

From the exception trace:Could not instantiate bean class [com.accenture.hybris.facades.customerservice.impl.CoopCSTicketFacade]: Constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory

May be you are trying to perform some operation on a autowired bean in CoopCSTicketFacade before the constructor of CoopCSTicketFacade is called?

Look at this part of the error: "'csTicketFacade' defined in class path resource [CoopAcceleratorFrontEndfacades-spring.xml]: "

There is probably a syntax error in that xml file, or the class specified in the xml doesn't exist.

Hi Ian, The configuration is correct. I'm try to migrate the version from 4.8 to 5.5.0.6. The context is null. Thank you for the answer. Ciao. Danilo
