NullPointerException

Posted on Apr 26, 2004 at 01:31 PM 20 Views

Hello,

When I launch the first persistence example from the mdk by exporting the project in eclipse (I have to work offline, i.e without synchronisation), I always get following error:

Me Persistence initialization, step 1: start create instance of com.sap.ip.me.api.persist.core.PersistenceRuntime

java.lang.NullPointerException

I think it comes when there is a getTransactionManager() call.

Do I have to configure something special to make it work ?

Has someone else ever had that kind of error before ?

Regards, Paul

    Hi Paul,

    do you have the IBM DB2e database installed? If so, the persistence example should run if you uninstall the database.

    I know, that this is no satisfactory solution, but in my case it helped me testing the example.

    Regards, Hannes

      Hi Johannes

      I have nothing excepted eclipse + SAP ME Client installed on my computer (no DB). I need to persist data by serialization, so I don't need any DB.

      The problem comes probably from the SAP MDK plugin (bug?) itself because once synchronized, my web application runs when started from eclipse or/and in the SAP ME Client (browser).

      There might be a "security lock" in the ME Client that can only be unlocked after synchronization so that when developping locally with eclipse, it refuses to persist any data.

      I used following workaround:

      When developping a new app. always use the same name as the previously synchronized app. When finished, rename it, upload on server and finally synchronize with client.

      Regards, Paul
