> NullPointerException in generator
> ---------------------------------
>
> Key: NUTCH-2551
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2551
> Project: Nutch
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: generator
> Affects Versions: 1.15
> Reporter: Hans Brende
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 1.15
>
>
> A NullPointerException is thrown during the crawl generate stage when I
> deploy to a hadoop cluster (but for some reason, it works fine locally).
> It looks like this is caused because the URLPartitioner class still has the
> old {{configure()}} method in there (which is never called, causing the
> {{normalizers}} field to remain null), rather than implementing the
> {{Configurable}} interface as detailed in the newer mapreduce API's
> Partitioner spec.
> Stack trace:
> {code}
> java.lang.NullPointerException

> Oh and it might also be because a *static* URLPartitioner instance is being
> used in the Generator.Selector class... but it's only initialized in the
> {{setup()}} method of the Generator.Selector.SelectorMapper class! So that
> whole setup looks pretty weird...
