Exception in thread "Timer-1" java.lang.NullPointerException - exception

I'm using eclipse, apache tomcat 6.0.32, Struts, Hibernate and obviously, log4j - which seems to be causing the problem. Since I'm really new to all of these technologies, I am unsure how to even start debugging the problem.
Since I'm not sure what kind of info I should provide, I'll just post the exception here:
Exception in thread "Timer-1" java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.mchange.v2.log.log4j.Log4jMLog$Log4jMLogger.isLoggable(Log4jMLog.java:255)

at java.util.TimerThread.mainLoop(Unknown Source)
at java.util.TimerThread.run(Unknown Source)
And my log4j.properties file:
# Output at info level, to the appender called 'A'. Debug has too much logging.
log4j.rootLogger=info, A
# Configure the appender called 'A'
log4j.appender.A=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.A.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n
Thanks in advance!

Hello Noy you might be creating Timer object in Local and might be scheduling at particular time, For my side the same error resolved by creating Timer object to global keyboard.
Use bellow line after declaring class. It should work.
Timer timer = new Timer();

Micronaut: Proper logging of "uncaught" Exceptions to not appear on System.err

I've a question regarding capture of "uncaught" exceptions, which appears with stack trace on System.err, circumventing logging configuration: All the other log messages appear properly formatted on System.out (JSON-formatted in my case). But this doesn't happen with Exceptions and stack traces "logged" to System.err!
I've recognized this to happen under at least two circumstances:
Asynchronous execution of tasks (HTTP requests in my case) via ExecutorService (as mentioned in "Scheduled Tasks" chapter). I've added #Retryable annotation to the method; but after all retries fail, "final" Exception thrown by last unsuccessful retry appears on System.err with its stack trace (the other ones thrown by earlier failed retries do not appear, seems they are caught by retry "mechanism" under the hood).
With Exceptions thrown by failed Health indicators (they are implemented by subclassing AbstractHealthIndicator).
I've tried implementing my own TaskExceptionHandler, replacing the default one (also mentioned in "Scheduled Tasks" chapter); and/or by adding System.setErr(System.out) in main method before building/setup of Micronaut Application Context. But nothing seems to help as my test cases attest.
Have I missed a chapter in Micronaut's documentation?
Thanks for any hints.
Regards
Christian
My wager is that Micronaut doesn't provide tools for setting a global uncaught exception handler because that's governed by the wider JRE. We've solved the problem in a few of our services with Thread.html#setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler by doing something like this at application startup:
Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler((t, e) -> logger.error("Uncaught exception", e));

Found similar post discussed here and here based on which I tried adding -XX:-UseSplitVerifier in VM arguments but it didn't work.
Moreover I understand that the error seem to occur due to lengthy method in my class file but as its my organization code I wont be able modify/split the method as suggested in some posts online.
You faced with the following issue: JVM has limit on method size in bites, but during byte code transformation which is required to make possible mocking static, final size of the method could exceed this limit. In this case you see this error
java.lang.ClassFormatError: Invalid method Code length 119842 in class file
In next release will be include fix, which addressed this issue by replacing huge method via code which throws exception by default, but you still able to suppress such, method.
But, it's still will be only workaround for classes you cannot modified. Right way to fix the issue, it's to refactor your code to make method smaller. There are a lot of refactoring techniques to achieve this goal.
You will probably not like my answer, but the only reasonable answer is: stop using PowerMock.
If your production code is such that you need PowerMock in order write unit tests; then seriously: change your production code. If you need PowerMock, then your "code under test" is most likely: bad.
PowerMock (and all other mocking frameworks that rely on byte code manipulation) most often, cause more trouble than good. They cause issues like the one you got now; they very much limit your ability to use different JVMs or to run coverage tools.
This comes from a person who spent countless hours fixing "PowerMock" based unit tests; and who has written hundreds of unit tests over the last months only relying on EasyMock; and not once had the need to turn to PowerMock.
To use JVM option '-noverify': https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=435446
As mentioned earlier, this can happen not just by trying to instrument a large method, but also trying to instrument a class with a large number of methods.
I've encountered a break at around +/- 1500 methods. It depends on the methods signatures in the class.
Try to reduce the number of methods in the class.

Physics Body Editor error

I get this error when trying to initialize BodyEditorLoader from this library http://www.aurelienribon.com/blog/projects/physics-body-editor/
Exception in thread "LWJGL Application" com.badlogic.gdx.utils.GdxRuntimeException: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: com.badlogic.gdx.physics.box2d.PolygonShape.newPolygonShape()J

How can i fix it?
to see the code where it is called, but I venture to say that the problem is the call to your world this must be called before here's an example:
This a example compile good:
oWorld = new World(gravedad, dormir);
loader = new BodyEditorLoaderNewW(
Gdx.files.internal("data/test.json"));
This a example not compile good:
loader = new BodyEditorLoaderNewW(
Gdx.files.internal("data/test.json"));
oWorld = new World(gravedad, dormir);
recive this:
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
com.badlogic.gdx.physics.box2d.PolygonShape.newPolygonShape () J
note the difference in the world is called one after so gives:
it is possible that in the future can, need this:
BodyEditorLoader - noSuchMethod
but if this is not the solution you could put some of the code, I hope you help
Based on this https://github.com/libgdx/libgdx/issues/2393 the problem is because natives aren't loaded before creating shape.
There are two solutions:
First is creating World instance before creating any shapes.
Second is calling Box2D.init(); before creating any shapes. This method is preferred because you don't need to create World instance and it's much more obvious.
Use this version https://gist.github.com/grulg/8691e7ee7709367ce165 instead of version from Google Code.

Spring integration | Service Activator - Error Channel , Exception handling

I have a problem in catching the exceptions in my spring integration application.
Flow of operations in my application.
Http:inbound gateway which receives the request (error-channel defined to my custom error channel)
Service Activator for basic validations (Exceptions which are thrown from here are handled by error-channel defined on the GW)
splitter
Aggregator
Exceptions on my splitter or Aggregator are not handled by my error channel. why?
Steps taken:
I added a chain and included a header enricher and specified an error channel just before the splitter.
After this, any exception on my splitter is handled by my error channel mentioned in the header enricher.
<chain input-channel="invitations">
<header-enricher>
<error-channel ref="failed-invitations" />
</header-enricher>
<int:splitter ref="payloadSplitter" />
</chain>
But the same doesnt work when do the same on my Aggregator. why?
Whenever there is an exception in my code, it retries and gets executed more than one time. why?
I have a "errorChannel" defined which logs the exceptions. it doesnt work.
I know the thread is too old, but I was also facing a similar issue and found I declared error-channel in header-enricher but not provide 'overwrite="true"' as a parameter. And after providing 'overwrite="true"'it is working as needed. I am surprised why spring integration does not provide an overwrite=true by default.
Let us know this is what solution you did in your old code? So everyone can find out the solution for such a scenario.

HttpClient not Serializable Exception

I am trying to implement a basic 1 spout - 1 bolt Storm Topology. I have a Storm Bolt to make an HTTP Request using the Apache HttpClient (4.3.1). But, I get the following exception when I run it:

Anyone else seen this? I know Storm itself uses the HTTP Client (4.1.1) internally. I tried to replace the internal library with the 4.3.1 version and I got another error:

I got my answer from the Google Forum for the Storm project. Here is the link to that post:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/storm-user/vdfamKeR9Lk
The fix is to instantiate the HttpClient instance in the prepare method of the Bolt class.
