[jira] [Commented] (CONNECTORS-1581) [Set priority thread] Error tossed: null during startup

["Karl Wright (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1581?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16763530#comment-16763530 ] 

Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1581:
-----------------------------------------

Here's the code that's throwing an NPE:

{code}
    // Compute the list of connector instances we will need.
    // This has a side effect of fetching all job descriptions too.
    Set<String> connectionNames = new HashSet<String>();
    for (int i = 0; i < descs.length; i++)
    {
      DocumentDescription dd = descs[i];
      IJobDescription job = jobDescriptionMap.get(dd.getJobID());
      if (job == null)
      {
        job = jobManager.load(dd.getJobID(),true);
        jobDescriptionMap.put(dd.getJobID(),job);
      }
      connectionNames.add(job.getConnectionName());
    }
{code}

The problem is, apparently, that jobManager.load(<jobID>) is coming back null.  I have no idea why this would happen but clearly the problem has to do with the database implementation, perhaps the mysql driver being used?
