Creating SC dependencies result in null pointer exception

Hi
I have installed JDI landscape and am nearly finished but I encounter a null pointer exception when I tried to adjust dependencies for my newly created SC and as a result I cannot create a track (no SCs could be added to it).
The exception is as follows:
java.lang.NullPointerException

PLEASE help me out

Hi,
Did you create Product/Software Components in SLD? And did you define dependencies(the three standard SAP SCs) for the SC in SLD? Did you update CMS after you've created SCs/dependencies in SLD?
Thanks,

Jbo null pointer exception whilst creating an AM

Hello,
I am trying to create some EO's,VO's and associated AM. At the end of the creation, I tend to get the following error
Load Error
Exception: oracle.jbo.dt.objects.JboException(java.lang.NullPointerException).
The creation of EO's runs smooth, but if I decide to create the associated VO's and the AM, the application hangs, and I have to kill it before I can move forward.
Please guide me

I am sorry I was ambiguous in my previous post.
I am trying to create a EO/VO/AM triplet for a host of tables using JDev 11g, and the tables under the 'mct' database.
I followed the following steps to create my triplet.
1. Using the EO wizard, I selected a host of tables, for instance, MCT_CONFIG_CONTACT_CENTER_VL from the MCT db
2. Following the usual steps, I tend to get the null pointer exception, with a 'load error' for one of the classes contained in a zip file, which I do not think I'm using, in the creation of the EO.
In the light of the above scenario, can you please guide me?

Null pointer exception with ImageToBuffer.create(........)

I'm trying to draw two lines on received video frames so I implemented an effect that takes a frame then :
frame = Buffer -> Image -> BufferedImage -> draw lines -> Image -> Buffer ( Problem ).
the problem is in converting the Image back to Buffer in order to assign it as the Effect outcome buffer ( which will be showed ), the process function code is as followed :
BufferToImage bti;
ImageToBuffer itb;
public int process(Buffer inBuffer, Buffer outBuffer)
Object data = inBuffer.getData();
if (bti == null)
bti = new BufferToImage( (VideoFormat) inBuffer.getFormat());
Image image = bti.createImage(inBuffer);
if (image != null)
Graphics2D g = bImage.createGraphics();
g.drawImage(image, null, null);
g.drawLine(160, 0, 160, 240);
g.drawLine(0, 120, 320, 120);
if (itb == null)
itb = new ImageToBuffer();
Image i = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(bImage.getSource());
if (b == null)
b = new Buffer();
b = itb.createBuffer(i, 15); ///causes null pointer exception
if (b != null)
inBuffer.setData(outBuffer.getData());
outBuffer.setData(b.getData());
else
inBuffer.setData(outBuffer.getData());
outBuffer.setData(data);
// Copy the input attributes to the output
outBuffer.setFormat(inBuffer.getFormat());
outBuffer.setLength(inBuffer.getLength());
outBuffer.setOffset(inBuffer.getOffset());
return BUFFER_PROCESSED_OK;
Any solutions for the problem.
Thank you for replying in advance..

thanks Timo

JAX-WS Client throws NULL Pointer Exception in NW 7.1 SP3 and higher

All,
My JAX-WS client is throwing an exception when attempting to create a client to connect to the calculation service. The exception is coming out of the core JAX-WS classes that are part of NetWeaver. (see exception below)
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
     at com.sap.engine.services.webservices.espbase.client.jaxws.core.SAPServiceDelegate.createDispatchContextExistingPort(SAPServiceDelegate.java:440)
     at com.sap.engine.services.webservices.espbase.client.jaxws.core.SAPServiceDelegate.createDispatchContext(SAPServiceDelegate.java:475)
     at com.sap.engine.services.webservices.espbase.client.jaxws.core.SAPServiceDelegate.createDispatch(SAPServiceDelegate.java:492)
     at com.sap.engine.services.webservices.espbase.client.jaxws.core.SAPServiceDelegate.createDispatch(SAPServiceDelegate.java:484)
     at javax.xml.ws.Service.createDispatch(Service.java:166)
I have done some research and it appears that as of NetWeaver 7.1 SP3 SAP stopped using the SUN JAX-WS runtime and implemented their own SAP JAX-WS runtime. I also took the time to decompile the jar file that contained the SAPServiceDelegate class which is throwing the null pointer exception. (see method from SAPServiceDelegate below)
    private ClientConfigurationContext createDispatchContextExistingPort(QName portName, JAXBContext jaxbContext)
        BindingData bindingData;
        InterfaceMapping interfaceMap;
        InterfaceData interfaceData;
        bindingData = clientServiceCtx.getServiceData().getBindingData(portName);
        if(bindingData == null)
            throw new WebServiceException((new StringBuilder()).append("Binding data '").append(portName.toString()).append("' is missing!").toString());
        QName bindingQName = new QName(bindingData.getBindingNamespace(), bindingData.getBindingName());
        interfaceMap = getInterfaceMapping(bindingQName, clientServiceCtx);
        interfaceData = getInterfaceData(interfaceMap.getPortType());
        ClientConfigurationContext result = DynamicServiceImpl.createClientConfiguration(bindingData, interfaceData, interfaceMap, null, jaxbContext, getClass().getClassLoader(), clientServiceCtx, new SOAPTransportBinding(), false, 1);
        return result;
        WebserviceClientException x;
        x;
        throw new WebServiceException(x);
The exception is being throw on the line where the interfaceMap.getPortType() is being passed into the getInterfaceData method. I checked the getInterfaceMapping method which returns the interfaceMap (line above the line throwing the exception). This method returns NULL if an interface cannot be found. (see getInterfaceMapping method below)
   public static InterfaceMapping getInterfaceMapping(QName bindingQName, ClientServiceContext context)
        InterfaceMapping interfaces[] = context.getMappingRules().getInterface();
        for(int i = 0; i < interfaces.length; i++)
            if(bindingQName.equals(interfaces<i>.getBindingQName()))
                return interfaces<i>;
        return null;
What appears to be happening is that the getInterfaceMapping method returns NULL then the next line in the createDispatchContextExistingPort method attempts to call the getPortType() method on a NULL and throws the Null Pointer Exception.
I have included the code we use to create a client below. It works fine on all the platforms we support with the exception of NetWeaver 7.1 SP3 and higher (I already checked SP5 as well)
      //Create URL for service WSDL
      URL serviceURL = new URL(null, wsEndpointWSDL);
      //create service qname
      QName serviceQName = new QName(targetNamespace, "WSService");
      //create port qname
      QName portQName = new QName(targetNamespace, "WSPortName");
      //create service
      Service service = Service.create(serviceURL, serviceQName);
      //create dispatch on port
      serviceDispatch = service.createDispatch(portQName, Source.class, Service.Mode.PAYLOAD);
What do I need to change in order to create a JAX-WS dispatch client on top of the SAP JAX-WS runtime?

Hi Guys,
I am getting the same error. Any resolution or updates on this.
Were you able to fix this error.
Thanks,

Null Pointer Exception when working with Custom Sql

I viewed the video on adding Custom Sql and everything seemed to work fine with regards to adding it to my report. However, I get a null pointer exception when I add a field from the Custom Sql table to the report and try to run the report including if I try to View Sql. There doesn't seem to be a stacktrace that I can show.
BTW... this was a work around for not being able to use Stored Procedures... I have killed 2 days now working on different ways to work around the Stored Procedure thing
Thanks,
Steve

Hi,

I changed my "actionPerformed" function a bit.
Thanks for your comments - I hadn't realized some mistakes I had made while trying to fix my code.
I'm still getting a null pointer exception, though.
Also, in the main function of GUI_CreateAntibody, I call init for GUI_CreateAntibody. Within THIS init function I call init for GUI_CreateAntibody_Sketcher. I don't understand what is wrong with this (except that I suppose I should be using constructors as opposed to init functions.)

Odd Null Pointer Exception

When compiling my code (in Netbeans 6.7), I get an odd Null Pointer Exception when I'm not even accessing a variable. I'm merely passing it on to other methods. Further, the exception doesn't pop up if I step through the code using the debug tools. Any reasons why this would occur?
Here is the method that throws the exception:
    public void refresh(Vector insetDisplays) {
        display.refresh(insetDisplays);
    }And here's the method that one calls:
   public void refresh(Vector insetDisplays) {
        this.insetDisplays = insetDisplays;
        repaint();
    }From the stack trace that's printed when the exception is thrown, the error occurs when in the top method, after calling the second method.
I'm so confused!
Thanks for your help.

Ok, your post seems like it's right; I put a Thread.sleep command in there, and it fixed the problem right up. In implementing that, I ran across another problem that seems to be even crazier. It's in my main method in my Main class. When I run the program, it's okay now, but if I run it to the cursor, I get an array out of bounds exception.
Here is the method:
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String filename = args[0];
        System.out.println(filename);
        RenderedImage image_rendered = JAI.create("fileload", filename);
        BufferedImage image = convertRenderedImage(image_rendered);
        gui.makeGUI(image,image.getHeight(),image.getWidth());
        final Dissection dissect = new Dissection(image);
        new Thread () {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                dissect.dissect(new Vector());
        }.start();
    }I get the error when I attempt to run to cursor at the gui.makeGUI line. Here is the error and stacktrace:
debug:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0
        at ocr.Main.main(Main.java:31)
Java Result: 1
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)I tested it, it happens when I run to cursor at every line, and only when I run to cursor within the Main class. Any ideas on this one? I'm having trouble getting more than a working fix with the Thread.sleep command without being able to run to cursor.

Is there a reason why this is and how do I get by it.
ii. Can I just add the field directly within the MDS>file/user.xml? Would there be an issue with changing an existing attribute metadata using the user.xml?

Pradeep thank you for your response. it was helpful. However, I also found the responses to both my questions.
i. The null pointer exception was due to using a complex query I was using in the LOV query. I tried a simple query and that worked fine.
ii. For modifying the user defined attributes one can consult the following forum post:
OIM 11g - Change UDF Field Type form String to LOV
Thanks

I need this urgently.

can you explain what your program tries to do... and
at where it went wrong..Sir,
We are trying to make an project where we can make a person register in our data base & after which he/she can search for other user.
The logged in user can modify his/her own data but can view other ppl's data.
We are in a phase of registering the user & that's where we are stuck. The problem is that after the login screen when we hit register (OK- button) the data are not getting entered in the data base.
Can u please help me??
I am using "jdk1.3' - studnet's edition.
I am waiting for your reply.
Thanks in advance & yr interest.

Null Pointer Exception and Illegal Arguement when ran with Wireless Toolkit

The following code throws a null pointer exception after it tried to initialize the textBox. I am not sure if there is something I am not importing, or if it's just because I'm sick and my head is cloudy. :-}.
I am using Wireless Toolkit 2.2 and Java 5.0
Anyhelp would be appreicated. Thank You.

Hi zoya,
Here is the problem:
tbHelp = new TextBox("HeLp", "You can press the back button", 25, 0);
This line declares a maximum textbox size of 25 but in reality he is declaring a textbox of size 29.
Thats why it is throwing the illegal argument.
happy coding :)

Null Pointer exception returned when object is not null!

I've isolated the problem and cut down the code to the minimum. Why do I get a null pointer exception when the start method is called, when the object objJTextField is not null at this point???? I'm really stuck here, HELP!
(two small java files, save as BasePage.java and ExtendedPage.java and then run ExtendedPage)
first file

objEP.show();

Hello ppaulf,
Your problem is in your ExtendedPage.java file. You can fix this by changing the line
private JTextField objJTextField = null;to:
private JTextField objJTextField = new JTextField();This creates a proper instance.
Good luck,

JRC (upg. to CR4E) - Report w Subreport - Oracle DB - Null Pointer Excepti

Hi
We have a Crystal Designer/Developer Version 11.5.10.1263. We develop reports using this.
Most of the reports have SQL Command mode design with JNDI/JDBC connection. It gets deployed with our Web application. And during runtime, when users access these reports from our web application, we typically use Java Reporting Component with Crystal Report Viewer SDK to open and display the report to the user.
Besides other issues, current problem I am having is:
I have a sub-report in my report. I am connecting to Oracle database. If this sub-report does not return any rows, I was getting a Null Pointer Exception. This seems to be a known bug. This happened to us when we had just the above mentioned components.
We recently upgraded just the JAR libraries to the ones packaged in CR4E (Crystal Reports For Eclipse) - initially to get more exporting capability.This upgrade gets us past the Null Pointer Exception issue.
Now, I am getting an error like "Unexpected database connector error". Please see the exception stack trace below if needed. Since we are a product and this display is specific to one out of about 100 different clients; with all the time we spent on making this report stuff work against this oracle DB client, we had finally ended up creating the display in JSP into our general product just for one of about 100 clients. Client must be the Lucky one...As a developer, I felt really frustrated.
One note:- SQL Server DB works perfect.
Other thing - Do we need to change any API calls after upgrading the JARS from standard JRC/Viewer to CR4E package?

I have exactly the same problem. Had posted it on the forum last week, but haven't received any response yet. I just file a single support case ($195) with SAP. If I hear anything useful back, will keep you posted. Please let me know if you are able to resolve the problem.
In my case, I can get my report to work with a single subreport. When I put multiple subreports, I get the same error as you are currently getting.
Check if your report has any special section formatting (conditional suppression etc). Try to remove those to see if it helps at all.

Null pointer exception while executing a scenario from cloned work repo

Hi,
I have involved in ODI 10g to 11g migration activity.
For doing that activity, i cloned the existing master and work repositories into some intermediate master and work schemas.
Created new configuration settings for pointing the odi 10g to the intermediate master and work repositories.
Everything is fine till this, but while executing any interface or package anything from intermediate work repo designer, am facing error as below
"Cannot start the execution, Null pointer exception"

Note: My previous and cloned Master's work's repository id are same
Could anyone pls help on this.
Thanks in advance..

The error is resolved by following the below solution
If you receive an error in ODI 10g like;
java.lang.Exception: Error during Session launching
at com.sunopsis.dwg.dbobj.SnpSession.remoteExecute
or
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.sunopsis.dwg.cmd.DwgCommandBase.prepare(DwgCommandBase.java)
1.First check whether your agents are working and test connection to repositories. If everything ok, you might have changed your repository name recently.
2.When you export your work and master repository and import to another schema or database and whether you connect to your imported repository, you change your repository name in your first environment.
3.Correct order is first rename your Master Repository name, log off / log on and change your Work Repository name and check below fields in both your Master and Work Repositories in both environments.
Master Repository : SNP_REM_REP
Work Repository : SNP_LOC_REPW
REP_NAME column of MASTER_REP.SNP_REM_REP should be equal to REP_NAME column in WORK_REP.SNP_LOC_REPW.
You cannot see WORK_REP.SNP_LOC_REPW value in ODI Topology Manager and if you are changing your repository name you need to update value from database.
Change the value from DB, loggoff and logon the user and connect the designer again.

Null pointer exception while inserting a new row in ADF with jdev

Hi,
In ADF, I have retrieved some user information from LDAP server and I want to insert those values in to my table. But when I do this, I am getting a null pointer exception when I get the view object (ViewObject vo=getCRUIP002_1();). I am not sure why this happens.
Here is my code. It is urgent.
and please some one help me in fixing the issue.
ViewObject vo=getCRUIP002_1();
vo.clearCache();
vo.setMaxFetchSize(0);
vo.executeQuery();
Row newRow=vo.createRow();
vo.insertRow(newRow);
SearchResult res = (SearchResult)results.next();
Attributes attrs = res.getAttributes();
// Row newRow = vo.getCurrentRow();
newRow.setAttribute("LOGINNAME",(Object)attrs.get("sn").get().toString());
newRow.setAttribute("PASSWORDVALUE","x");
newRow.setAttribute("FIRSTNAME",(Object)attrs.get("sn").get().toString());
newRow.setAttribute("LASTNAME",(Object)attrs.get("sn").get().toString());
newRow.setAttribute("EMAIL",(Object)attrs.get("mail").get().toString());
Thanks,
Priya.S

assuming ur jdev version is 10.1.2
ViewObject vo=getCRUIP002_1();i dont think ur getting the view object hence null pointer expception.
ViewObject vo = findViewObject("MyView1");
if u r in the object class then first get the root application module and then access the View obejct from there.
In ADF if u assign a null value, u will always get the null pointer exception coz of java. Run the app in debug mode and check the values step by step, by the way there is not exception handling in ur code either, Do u know how to debug in Jdev ?

Problem in getEelementById() method-null pointer exception

Hi All,
I am using DocumentBuilder factory for parsing a xml file.
I am getting the document object and also creating an element in
the root element .And also I am setting the element id for the
element as attiribute .I need to select the element having same ID
using getElementById() method .But it is giving null pointer
exception.
N.B: My parsing file contains dtd declaration and root element.
My sample code look like this;
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf=DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db=dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc=db.parse(ne File("C:/index.xml");
Element root t=doc.getDocumentElement();
root.setAttribute("ID","12345");
Element oElement = doc.createElement(element_name);
oElement.setAttribute("ID",element_id);
Element oEle=doc.getElementById(element_id);
Could anyone please to solve this problem.
Please do favour with me.
Thanks and Regards,
Sreekanth

while creating xml you should mention which attribute is ID attribute using
setIDAttribute() method,
as you are setting "ID" attribute as ID so
after adding Id attribute to the root element
use setIDAttribute("ID",true);
then getElementById will return the element by using ID
