Thanks Chris!

I ran it in debug mode and noticed that one of the subjects ion the request did not exist in the Grouper. Once I fixed that it started working.

This worked for me.

 

Did you run the sample data program to setup the registry (note, I think this might destroy your database, do this on a sample schema)

 

(it’s a private method, so you need to edit the main in SampleCapture and run it from there:

 

  /**

   * @param args

   */

  publicstaticvoid main(String[] args) {

 

    SampleCapture.setupData();

 

  }

Subject: [grouper-users] Null Pointer Exception while calling permissions web service

 

Hi,

 

I am running WsSampleGetPermissionAssignmentRest class to get the permissions assigned to a set of users. It runs successfully and give me result back when I do not include the limits in the request. But when I include the limits by having getPermissionAssignments.setIncludeLimits("T") it throws NPE at line number 6175 in the GrouperServiceLogic class. attributeDefNameIds is null and that is why NPE is thrown.  

 

For my use cases, some actions will have limits and some will not have so the clients will always need to include the limits. So my question is what is the best way to fix this issue ?  

 

Thanks,

Vivek
