Unable to add custom processor to NiFi flow

[Jeffrey Storck <je...@red-alpha.com>]

Hello,

I was referred to this email address by another NiFi developer.  I am
trying to add a custom processor to a NiFi flow via the UI and encountering
the following errror:

Unable to create processor of type com.foo.MyProcessor due to:
com.foo.MyProcessor

The nifi-users.log has the same statement there, no stacktrace.  I am not
sure at this point what is keeping the processor from being created.

I am developing against the 0.0.2-incubating version of nifi-api.

Any advice or direction would be appreciated.  Thanks!

M,

Yes, the relevant details will be in your nifi-user.log. You will likely
need to enable debug on this line in conf/logback.xml.

    <logger name="org.apache.nifi.web.api.config" level="DEBUG"
additivity="false">
        <appender-ref ref="USER_FILE"/>
    </logger>

In subsequent versions the need to enable DEBUG level logging has been
address. The error and stacktrace will be logged automatically.

Thanks.

Matt

I'm encountering the same issue, same release, and the nifi-app.log doesn't
contain any stack traces or anything at all out of the ordinary really.  Any
other thoughts?

Jeffrey,

Take a look in the 'nifi-app.log'.  There should be a full stack trace
there most likely.

If there are failures like this while adding to the graph there is
likely some lifecycle method being called and throwing a stacktrace.
Take a look in the app log and see if it is there.

Thanks
Joe
