'XDOBURSTREP' fails with a JAVA null error

Question

Hi everyone!
I am trying to submit bursting from an after report trigger in a RDF. The request starts and then fails with this error :
--Exception
null
java.lang.NullPointerException
     at oracle.apps.xdo.oa.cp.JCP4XDOBurstingEngine.getControlFile(JCP4XDOBurstingEngine.java:401)
     at oracle.apps.xdo.oa.cp.JCP4XDOBurstingEngine.runProgram(JCP4XDOBurstingEngine.java:237)
     at oracle.apps.fnd.cp.request.Run.main(Run.java:161)
Has anyone else run into this issue? Could it be my bursting control file? This is the first time I am trying bursting, so I'm not sure where to look. Any help would be great!

Answer 1

Yes, the temp directory is set to /usr/tmp
I see in the log file :
Retrieving XML request information
Node Name: [our instance name]
Preparing parameters
null output = [path to bursting concurrent request id file]
inputfilename =[path to request id file calling bursting with XML data]
Data XML File:[path to request id file calling bursting with XML data]
Do you have that in your log files?
I believe that I have done all of the steps correctly. I have the call to the bursting conc program in the after report trigger. I have a Data Definition where I attached the bursting file and I have a template definition with a template attached. Did I miss anything?
