--------------------------------------

             Summary: Reading a valid JSON file causes a NPE
                 Key: SPARK-36601
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-36601
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Spark Core
    Affects Versions: 3.1.2
            Reporter: Jussi Lyytinen


Executing the following Scala code:
{code:java}
spark.read.option("multiLine", true).json("/mnt/reproduce/test.json").show
{code}
Using the following data in test.json:
{code:java}
[
  {"value": 42},
  {"value": 43},
  null,
  {"value": 44}
]
{code}
Causes the following failure:
{code:java}
Job aborted due to stage failure.
Caused by: FileReadException: Error while reading file dbfs:/mnt/reproduce/test.json.
Caused by: NullPointerException:
{code}
The documentation is not clear about the expected behavior but my personal expectation would be to get this instead of complete failure:
{code:java}
+-----+
|value|
+-----+
|   42|
|   43|
| null|
|   44|
+-----+
{code}
