Null Pointer while trying to install a package

[Peter_Puzanovs]

Trying to install a package using the crx/packmgr/index.jsp interface I am getting:

com.day.jcr.vault.packaging.PackageException: java.lang.NullPointerException

This package installation has worked before and there were 0 changes made to it!

This is happening to every package we try to install now.

Error: java.lang.NullPointerException

Could anyone advice on the fix for this ?

Thanks,

I have seen this behavior when we tries to install a package that tries to install a bundle into an /install-folder that is not there.

Hi Ove,

Thanks for your reply. It would made sense if I tried to install a bundle in my case I am trying to install a single ecma file...

Googling around the issue I have found this page: http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/5-4/release_notes/platform_packaging.html it mentions:

29926 – Avoid java.lang.NullPointerException in com.day.jcr.vault.packaging.PackageException references that this bug has been fixed.

As we are running CQ5.5 SP3, is there a chance that this issue was brought back ?

Thanks you for your help !

The bug you are reffering is already fixed.  Any case file a daycare ticket.

By any chance have you deleted the /etc/workflow/scripts/TEST/check_isPublicContent.ecma the node exist earlier and then trying to add again through package?
