Java.lang.NullPointerException with non admin account in firefox

Hi everybody. I'm new to java and after trying installing JDK 6 and Netbeans I got this exception everytime I visit a site that use java technology :
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.sun.deploy.net.proxy.DynamicProxyManager.reset(Unknown Source)
at com.sun.deploy.net.proxy.DeployProxySelector.reset(Unknown Source)
at sun.plugin.AppletViewer.initEnvironment(Unknown Source)
This happens only with firefox (IE and Opera works well) and only if I log in a Windows non administrative account.
One month ago everything worked well with firefox. I tried to uninstall JDK anr JRE 6 and reinstall 1.5.11 as well as reinstall firefox. I tried even Gran Paradiso Alpha2, but I got the same exception.
I'm using winxp SP2
What can I do ? Please help me !
Thanks by advance

NPE getting at 329 , that is in the if condition at
if ((t != null) && (pi != null) && (pi.length > 0))
proxyhost = pi[0].getHost();
proxyport = pi[0].getPort();
i tried with pi[] , then also i am getting NPE , i am really sorry for that ....

Java.lang.NullPointerException with OracleXMLParser V2

Hi,
I am getting java.lang.NullPointerException with OracleXMLParser V2.
Following is some of the code snippet. I am not sure where I am going
wrong. I am using the SAXParser. I tried both FileReader as well as URL
InputSources But I am getting the same error.
Parser parser = new SAXParser();
parser.setDocumentHandler(this);
parser.setEntityResolver(this);
parser.setDTDHandler(this);
parser.setErrorHandler(this);
try {
FileReader fileReader = new FileReader(defaultFileName);
//InputSource iSource = new InputSource(fileReader);
URL myURL = new URL("http://ewdev02/ooppub01.xml");
InputSource iSource = new InputSource(myURL.toString());
parser.parse(iSource);
//parser.parse("http://ewdev02/ooppub01.xml");
catch (FileNotFoundException fe) {
System.err.println("File Not Found!");
catch (SAXParseException se)
System.out.println("Sax Exception: " + se.getMessage());
catch (IOException ioe)
System.out.println("IO Exception: " + ioe.getMessage());
catch (Exception e){
System.out.println("Error Parsing: " + e.toString ());
Here are some of my habdlers:
public void startDocument() {
System.out.println("Beginning of the Document!");
public void endDocument() throws SAXException {
System.out.println("End of the Document!");
System.out.println("A total of " + n + "Records inserted in the database!");
public void startElement(String elname) throws SAXException {
if (elname.equalsIgnoreCase("DOCS")){
System.out.println("Biginning of the document! Ignoring <Docs>");
curColumn = new AIColumns();
else if (elname.equalsIgnoreCase("DOC")){
System.out.println("Begining of <DOC>");
curColumn.flush();
n++;
currentElement = elname;
System.out.println( currentElement );
public void endElement(String elname) throws SAXException {
if (elname.equalsIgnoreCase("DOC")){
System.out.println("End of <DOC>");
//Now call the function to insert in the database
try {
DriverManager.registerDriver (new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
} catch ( Exception e ) {
System.err.print("Exception: ");
System.err.println( e.getMessage() );
return;
..... after this I insert the record into database.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Java.lang.NullPointerException with FTP receiver

Hi All,
I have a java.lang.NullPointerException in the Runtime Workbench for my FTP Adapter, that is a receiver.
At SXMB_MONI all the messages are successful.
What this could be?
Thanks in advance,
Daniela

Naveen,
Thanks for your help.
I took a look in RWB and it seems like there was an error when CC tried to connect with the FTP server. The last two messages are:
Success -> Connect to FTP server "10.112.144.108", directory "\interfaces2\conversionesTest"
Error -> Attempt to process file failed with Error occurred while connecting to the FTP server "10.112.144.108:22": java.lang.NullPointerException
Do you think ii could be an conection error (login, port) or a wrong configuration in my CC?
Thaks in advance,
Daniela Machado

Screen sharing to OS X Lion Server with non-admin account

I have set up a Lion Server with one admin (in addition to the root user) and several non-admin normal accounts. In Server.app, I have enabled remote login with ssh, and remote management via screen sharing. I am unable to use Screen Sharing to connect to the server from the non-admin accounts, but able to use the admin account. I've read that it is only enabled for admin users, but need to access from non-admin accounts, and I can't add these accounts to the admin group. Is there a way to do this with Workgroup Manager? I tried changing the Remote Management settings in System Preferences by adding the non-admin, but when selecting 'Observe' and 'Control' in the options for the user, they are not saved.

I resolved this issue by deselecting the "Enable screen sharing and remote management" in Server.app and going to System Preferences, Sharing Preferences, Screen Sharing, and allowing access for "All Users". If you have some users you want to allow VNC, you can create a group, add the allowed users to the group, and add the group under "Only these users".

Java.lang.NullPointerException with and update statement

I have an open method called before this one that connects me to the database. It works fine and have it working with a bunch of other methods but this one gives me this exception. i've even hard coded the variable 'user' and 'albumNumber' with information that exists in the database. i can't see where this logical error is coming from. I appreciate the help. I've been on this for 3 1/2 hour going blind. thanks!!
public boolean updateImageTrackerAlbums(String user, int albumNumber){

Do you understand anyway when a NullPointerException would be thrown? It will be thrown if you try to access/invoke an object reference which is actually null.
Connection conn = null;
pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(query); // Throws NPE because conn is null.

Java.lang.NullPointerException with ADF Module

Hi,
I am trying to build simple application like "How to Build a Simple UIX Search Form
But my view is
=====================================================
SELECT EmIssue.ID,
EmIssue.INITIATIVE_ID,
EmIssue.NAME,
EmIssue.DESCRIPTION
FROM EM_ISSUE EmIssue
=====================================================
And I added new method at AppModuleImpl
It is
ViewObject Issue = findViewObject("EmIssueView1");
System.out.println("***In setBindVars*****");
String WhereClause = " EmIssue.NAME like '%issue%'";
Issue.setWhereClause(WhereClause);
System.out.println("***END setBindVars*****");
Issue.executeQuery();
=====================================================
And the system raises error with java.lang.NullPointerException at line
String WhereClause = " EmIssue.NAME like '%issue%'";
Could any one tell me where is error in my code
Thanks

It is unlikely that NPE was raised on
String WhereClause = " EmIssue.NAME like '%issue%'";
It's more likely that NPE was thrown from
Issue.setWhereClause(WhereClause);
This would happen if Issue is null, which means that the findViewObject() method couldn't find a VO named "EmIssueView1". Make sure that the VO name is spelled corectly. Names are case sensitive.
Thanks.

at com.sun.facelets.util.FastWriter.write(FastWriter.java:77)I would consider it as a bug in Facelets. But you might also have done something seriously wrong with your RichFaces tag and the logic behind which caused this unexpected exception.
For more accurate answers, try reposting this question at the RichFaces forum at JBoss.com, there where the RichFaces boys walk around. You see, you're here at a Sun forum where mainly Mojarra boys walk around.

Thank you for reply.
I develop this application in 10.1.3.1.0 ,
I could finally run it on OC4J 10.1.3.1 developer preview in the server , so i have no need to work on running the application on 10.1.3.00 .
but now i have a deep problem with sending emails from my application deployed in production server , i found no solution for it .
it is really ODD in my eyes.
if you are intrested to look at the problem ,
here is its post in OC4J forum , in case that you have experiences , please take a look and advice me for it.

Run the setDomainEnv or CommonEnv.cmd scripts from domain directory or wlserver_home\common\bin directory and then run the java code.
Let me know if it helps

Catching java.lang.NullPointerException with cftry/cfcatch?

I want to find where it's generating this error so I can fix

be a good time to learn if this helped me track down the null. Can
anyone provide an example of how to use these tags with the above
NPE and output a message that give info on where it's faulting?
I'm using a standard update query,
<cfquery>
UPDATE table
SET columns = new values
WHERE ID column = some ID
</cfquery>

That was a great tip Dan. Helped me find the line. Apparently
a datatype "date" was given an incorrect null value. I figured the
problem and the update works now :)
Here's code incase someone wants to know:

How to run admin tasks with non-admin account ?

Hello,
The title says it all: I want to allow some non-administrative accounts to run admin tasks which must be run as root.
A solution would be to use 'sudo' and give rights to those non-admin accounts on the binaries used by the tasks. But I notably use 'chmod' and 'chown' in those tasks, and I would not want to give to non-admin accounts rights to run those commands as root outside the admin task scripts. But from my understanding of 'sudo', if I do it, non-admin accounts will be able to use chmod and chown outside the scripts. Is this right ?
The sid bit could have been a solution I think, but sadly it is not supported on Mac OSX 10.5.
Thanks

I am trying to use the sudo route add command in a script, which should run as part of a vpn connection config file. I get an unable to run script error in the log.
I searched and found the following older discussion
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1986808
I tried that but I get a syntax error when trying to save the sudoers file I chose to save anyway.
Tried to run the command from the terminal and got the following error
postdrop warning: unable to look up public/pickup:no such file or directory.
Can you give me an example of your sudoers file with the correct syntax etc.
Thanx

Apple Remote won't work with Non-admin account :-(

Hi all,
i have a Macbook (OS version 10.5.4). Earlier there was only one account on this laptop, and i was using it as an administrator. A few days ago i decided to convert that account to a regular (non-admin) one, and created a separate admin-only account. When i tried using my Apple Remote in the non-admin account, it wouldn't work at all ! So i tried it in the admin account, and i was able to use it and paired it with this macbook.
But on logging back into the regular account, it has stopped working again (even though System Preferences>Security says the macbook is paired with a remote). Please help!! It would be especially helpful if this could be fixed without having to create & migrate to a whole new account, etc... i'm open to command-line solutions [ that won't crash the machine ]
Thanks a million !
..meghana

Never mind. i logged out of the non-admin account and into the admin account, unpaired and re-paired the remote. Then logged back into the non-admin account, and voilà! Its magic i tell you! hope this helps any other people who have the same problem.

Hi all,
If my memory serves me well, the exception is thrown because the application needs a working calendar for a person provided in time mangement. Make sure the correct infotypes are used. Also the organization structure needs to be set up correctly. The manager needs someone to approve and the employee needs someone to get approved by.
Regards, Marcel.

ALSB 3.0 : java.lang.NullPointerException with MFL Transform on runtime

Hi,
I try to insert an action "MFL Transform" in a message flow in a proxy service. (ASLB 3.0 Linux)
The configuration of the message flow and proxy works well.
When I try to test the proxy I get a java.lang.NullPointerException on stages.transform.runtime.MFLTransformRuntimeStep.
Any ideas ?

How are you sure of the MFL configuration when this is the component that is causing the issue. The MFL configuration could be 100% but if the variable that is writing to the MFL is not the right datatype or not initilised then this could cause a NullPointerException error.
This is common and usually seen when the conversion is set to be binary to xml (default) when infact you want it to be xml to binary. Which way are you converting and what is the data type of the variable writing to the MFL?
cheers
James

Thank for your answer.
I've seen these documents Note:240994.1 and 433704.1 and have cleared my cache. But the the error persist.
I've noticed that before the last line in error, we have a difference:
In Metalink document, we can see:
FRM-92100
+...+
at sun.applet.*Jinit*AppletPanel.run(Compiled Code)
+...+
But my error is:
FRM-92100
+...+
at sun.applet.*Applet*Panel.run(Compiled Code)
+...+
If I create a new menu, everything is work fine. So I want to avoid to recreate every time the menu module that cause the error.
Thanks for your reply.
Best regards
