             Summary: NPE during validation of Controller Service that relies on another Controller Service at the controller level
                 Key: NIFI-2388
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2388
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Joseph Percivall
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 1.0.0


In the controller level:
Create valid StandardSSLContextService
Create DistributedMapCacheClientService that relies on the SSL CS
start StandardSSLContextService
see a validation error for DistributedMapCacheClientService saying:

"" is invalid because Failed to run validation due to java.lang.NullPointerException

This is due to this line[1]. It attempts to get the identifier of the process group but since it's associated with the controller and not a process group it fails with an NPE.
