             Summary: GenerateFlowFile throws NPE in FileSystemRepository
                 Key: NIFI-3671
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3671
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Framework
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
         Environment: Ubuntu Linux 14.04.5 LTS, x86, NiFi 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT, Java 
1.8.0_102
            Reporter: Joe Skora
         Attachments: genff-npe.log

While volume testing, {{GenerateFlowFile}} is randomly throwing 
{{NullPointerException}} during startup.  The NPE occurs in 
{{FileSystemRepository.write()}} called from 
{{BufferedOutputStream.flushBuffer()}} and results in an Administrative Yield.

When it happens, the bulletin shows up on the processors immediately after 
starting them.  Starting them a second time will often succeed, but sometimes 
it takes a multiple retries.  When the {{GenerateFlowFile}} processors are 
started for these tests, the graph is typically empty.

Log entries for an example Thread are attached.  This looks similar to 
[NIFI-2551|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2551], but that is marked 
as being fixed in 1.0.0.
