Greg Holmberg commented on UIMA-1747: ------------------------------------- This is due to this line, 147 in MarkupHandler.java, returning null: Type attributeType = cas.getTypeSystem().getType("org.apache.uima.AttributeFS"); The problem is that the class name string is incorrect. It should be "org.apache.tika.uima.AttributeFS". Same for the line above, but that variable is never used, so it doesn't matter. > TikaAnnotator: null pointer exception in MarkupHandler.populateCAS > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: UIMA-1747 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-1747 > Project: UIMA > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Sandbox-TikaAnnotator > Affects Versions: 2.3 > Reporter: Greg Holmberg > Priority: Blocker > > I get the following NPE. > java.lang.NullPointerException > at org.apache.uima.cas.impl.CASImpl.createFS(CASImpl.java:474) > at > org.apache.uima.tika.MarkupHandler.populateCAS(MarkupHandler.java:168) > at > org.apache.uima.tika.TIKAWrapper.populateCASfromURL(TIKAWrapper.java:105) > at > org.apache.uima.tika.FileSystemCollectionReader.getNext(FileSystemCollectionReader.java:99) > at > org.apache.uima.collection.impl.cpm.engine.ArtifactProducer.readNext(ArtifactProducer.java:494) > at > org.apache.uima.collection.impl.cpm.engine.ArtifactProducer.run(ArtifactProducer.java:711) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
