Bug ID: 60254 Summary: NullPointerException in org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain Product: Tomcat 8 Version: 8.0.37 Hardware: PC Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Reporter: jens.borgl...@gmail.com Unfortunately I don't have any actual repro steps for this issue but in our test environment we've seen NullPointerExceptions like the one shown below, and we've also from our logs concluded that calls to HttpServletRequest.getServletPath() at the same time returned null (which according to the Javadoc should never happen as far as I understand). The issue is not easily reproducible - we've just seen it a few times in our load tests so I speculate that it may be due to some kind of race condition. java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:247) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:207) at com.REDACTED.SecurityFilter.processRequest(SecurityFilter.java:335) at com.REDACTED.SecurityFilter.doFilter(SecurityFilter.java:176) at com.REDACTED.AbstractFilter.doFilter(AbstractFilter.java:125) at org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy.invokeDelegate(DelegatingFilterProxy.java:346) at org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy.doFilter(DelegatingFilterProxy.java:262) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:240) We're using Spring 4.3.3 if that's relevant (which I doubt it is). We've recently upgraded from Tomcat 8.0.33 to 8.0.37 and we didn't see the issue before (but given that the issue isn't easily reproduced that may of course just have been luck). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
