Could not invoke method: deployFiles, reason: java.lang.NullPointerException

TS - 7.3.2
OS - Windows 2008
DB Deployment - Disabled
LSCS Deployment Disabled

I'm getting null pointer exception on deploy task when it deploy to development node.

I verified default.site and teamsite resource node is same.

Did you search these forums? The most likely problem is that you have folders under /sites that are not livesite sites.

In your case, the code doesn't fail on exactly the same line as usual, so if that's not it, post the value of the "deployable.files" variable on your job instance.

nipper

Another thing that can cause a NPE is when the default.site does not have a default deployment target. This happens if one upgraded from 6.7.X or 7.1 with older sites.

sahu

Thanks for reply.

default.site having value LiveSiteRuntime

From where i can find deployable.files values ?

I cross checked and it's attached all files with proper path.

It's stuck in below java code in BaseDeploymentService.java

Collection currentDeployments = adapter.buildDeployments(tmpContext);

nipper

Did you check what Rick suggested ?

Look in /sites, what it there ? Are all the entries valid sites (with default.site and default.sitemaps) ?

sahu

Yes I'm deploying from valid sites and having default.site and default.sitemap

I tried to deploy from branch

/default/main/component-guide/WORKAREA/shared/sites/Component Guide

but getting same error.

TeamSite resource file :

[HTML]

nipper

The question is, are there other files/folders in /sites, other than for Component Guide ?

sahu

It's having only default installed files, i didn't create any thing.......

Rick Poulin

From where i can find deployable.files values ?

It should be a wf variable on the deployment task, by the time it dies. (go to a job instance that died at the deployment step, then Actions > Change Properties)

Did you make any changes to the PLC workflow?

Hi Sahu, did it get solve?
