[jira] Commented: (CHUKWA-465) Misconfiguration leads to
NullPointerException in PostProcessorManager
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHUKWA-465?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12846260#action_12846260 ]
Ari Rabkin commented on CHUKWA-465:
-----------------------------------
Good catch. The right fix, I think, is to add a default value for that field.

> ----------------------------------------------
> The problem is here:
> String[] classes = conf.get(POST_DEMUX_DATA_LOADER).split(",");
> In my case (again, due to bad configuration) that configuration file is missing and so we end up trying to split through a null reference.
> *Note*: I got this code from trunk, revision 924074.
