Getting Null pointer exception during initialization

[Former Member]

Getting Null pointer exception during initialization and update system. After importing all core data, the event does not get published and sample data does not import also. Any one can help with this issue?

Hi we got the same issue and struggling to understand what's going on with ant initialize

 [java] WARN  [main] [AbstractSystemSetup] Missing setup parameter for key [syncProducts&ContentCatalogs], falling back to defined default [false]
  [java] INFO  [main] [Initialization] Error creating sample data for peginitialdata. See console output.
  [java] ERROR [main] [Initialization] java.lang.NullPointerException
  [java] INFO  [main] [Initialization] Creating project data for catalogssync ...
  [java] INFO  [main] [Initialization] Creating project data for pegfacades ...
  [java] INFO  [main] [Initialization] Creating project data for ycommercewebservices ...

Initialization class is embedded in coreserver.jar but doesn't log anything useful

what version do you use? And which extensions (recipe?) have you installed?

[Former Member]

Hybris 6.2.0.2, recipe sap_aom_som_b2b_b2c

Please note that impex have been taken from apparel-uk and customized, but a NPE is pretty strange. Any way to debug that part? Which bean could we override?

The addonsupport extension is being used by addons to install additional data. This might be triggered during an event in InitialDataSystemSetup or your peginitialdata extension. The addonsupport throws a NPE when there's a product catalog without a suffix "ProductCatalog" and when there are content catalogs without the suffix "ContentCatalog". You might have chosen a different naming convention.

This does however not clarify why you don't get more information in the log.

the LOG.error(var8) means that only the exception.getMessage is printed out. Any way to extend the Initialization class?

Same error we are getting in 6.2.0.0, is any one found something to resolve this?

[Former Member]

do you have a customized InitialDataSystemSetup? if I remember correctly we fixed it by double checking the way the InitialDataSystemSetup was invoked, and the NPE was given by an improperly generate productCatalog name

Kindly help asap.

hi Labanya, can you provide the error message? Otherwise its hard help you. A Hybris version number, and the items you are installing would help as well. You should be able to trace the where the import is failing, either through the console or through the HAC.
