>
> Key: RAVE-331
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAVE-331
> Project: Rave
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.5-INCUBATING
> Reporter: Anthony Carlucci
> Assignee: Anthony Carlucci
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.6-INCUBATING
>
> Attachments: stacktrace.log
>
>
> How to Reproduce
> --------------------------
> 1) Login to Rave as any user
> 2) Upload a gadget to the widget store - verify it was added successfully
> 3) Go back and try to add the same gadget url again
> 4) You will see the standard "rave has suffered a brief meltdown" page
> The issue is that the DefaultWidgetService.registerNewWidget function returns a null Widget object if it finds the URL already in the system. The RavePermissionEvaluator.hasPermission functions are not properly dealing with potential null objects and thus a NPE is thrown.
> How to Fix
> ----------------
> 1) Improve the RavePermissionEvaluator.hasPermission methods to check for and safely handle possible null objects.
