NullPointerException at AbstractFlowExecutionRepository.getConversation
Im having a problem with exception handling. If there is an exception thrown in the first state of a flow then a NullPointerException is thrown at AbstractFlowExecutionRepository.getConversation
At the stacktrace you can see an IllegalArgumentException being thrown by the start state of a flow. I have a transition to catch all exceptions and go to a view-state showing an error page.
Doing some debug i reached the piece of code where exception is throwed, it seems the key hasn't been set allready. Searching on google i found an old issue which is supposed to be solved but seems to be the exact problem i have.
I need a way to solve this issue, I would appreciate any help.
Thanks.
Im using spring-web 2.5.6 and spring webflow 2.0.5.RELEASE.
That with EJB3 and JSF.
JBoss 4.2
The xml flow:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<flow xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/webflow" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/webflow
http://www.springframework.org/schema/webflow/spring-webflow-2.0.xsd" start-state="listTM" >
<!-- Handlers -->
<var name="handler" class="com.idest.base.prototype.handlers.ExceptionThrowerr" />
<view-state id="listTM" >
<on-entry>
<evaluate expression="handler.throwException()" />
</on-entry>
<transition on="paginar" to="listTM" />
<transition on-exception="java.lang.Exception" to="estatFinalError" validate="false" />
</view-state>
<view-state id="estatFinalError" view="error.xhtml" />
</flow>
The line where it throws the nullpointer
Code:
ConversationId conversationId = (ConversationId) ((CompositeFlowExecutionKey) key).getExecutionId();
The stacktrace
Code:
