Sowmya Ramesh commented on FALCON-1583:
---------------------------------------
[~me.venkatr]: Can you please attach the stack trace too?
[~ajayyadava]: Root cause is if the life cycle configs are not added in startup
properties and if LifecyclePolicyMap service is not added in services to
instantiate, policyMap is null and in the validation accessing null Map is
throwing NPE in validateLifecycle.
> Feed submit/validation with lifecycle tag throws NPE without meaningful error
