They are development after all :0) In threads elsewhere, we've been discussing two patches which were recently integrated into 2.x, namely NUTCH-1533 & 1532 respectively. Your are absolutely right that these seem to have had consequences which we did not anticipate, namely that the static batchID is not always present and we therefore get the NPE. I would advise you to use the crawl script for your crawling as it seems (from your raw logs) that no generation is even happening therefore GeneratorJob will not assign any value to the BatchID field. Can I please ask you to open an issue in our Jira system and attach your patch there. This is of great value to progressing the codebase. Thank you Lewis
