Problem while creating a custom document using JAVA API in the current Folder

Question

I am trying to create an instance of a custome type from the API. I have created a custom type via XML. I have associated a JSP with the custom type thru iFS manager. This jsp provides an interface for the user to enter various data. On submit I call some other jsp also loaded into the /ifs/webui/jsps which calls a method in the java class to create an instance of the above mentioned type. This instance needs to be created in the current directory and not in the home directory of the user. I have written a java program which when run from JDeveloper connects to the repository and creates the object, but not as a foldered object. If I load this class into custom_classes directory, I get an exception. I am attaching the code also here which does the actual processing.
package cms;
import oracle.ifs.agents.common.*;
import oracle.ifs.agents.manager.*;
import oracle.ifs.agents.server.*;
import oracle.ifs.beans.*;
import oracle.ifs.common.*;
public class ContentModule extends Object {
public static final String CLASSNAME = "CONTENT";
public static final String TOPICID_ATTRIBUTE = "TOPICID";
public static final String SITEID_ATTRIBUTE = "SITEID";
LibrarySession m_session;
public ContentModule() {
connectToRepository();
createDocument("AM5","s");
public void connectToRepository(){
try{
LibraryService l_service=new LibraryService();
CleartextCredential l_credential = new CleartextCredential("system","manager");
ConnectOptions l_options=new ConnectOptions();
l_options.setServiceName("IfsDefault");
l_options.setServicePassword("ifssys");
m_session=l_service.connect(l_credential,l_options);
}catch(IfsException ex){
ex.setVerboseMessage(true);
ex.printStackTrace();
public void createDocument(String p_docName,String p_docContent){
try{
DocumentDefinition l_doc=new DocumentDefinition(m_session);
l_doc.setClassname(CLASSNAME);
long newId1=5;
long newId2=5;
FolderPathResolver l_currentPath=new FolderPathResolver(m_session);
Folder l_currentFolder=l_currentPath.getCurrentDirectory();
l_doc.setAddToFolderOption(l_currentFolder);
l_doc.setName(p_docName);
l_doc.setContent(p_docContent);
AttributeValue av1 = AttributeValue.newAttributeValue(newId1);
l_doc.setAttribute(TOPICID_ATTRIBUTE,av1);
AttributeValue av2 = AttributeValue.newAttributeValue(newId2);
l_doc.setAttribute(SITEID_ATTRIBUTE,av2);
Document l_document=(Document) m_session.createPublicObject(l_doc);
}catch(IfsException ex){
ex.setVerboseMessage(true);
ex.printStackTrace();
public static void main(String[] args) {
ContentModule contentModule = new ContentModule();
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Please print out the Verbose Stack Trace generated when you run this application.
I suspect that you FolderPathResolver is not pointed at the directory you think it is. You might want to try printing out
I_CurrentFolder.getAnyFolderPath();
and I_CurrentFolder.getName();
null
