after deleting an entity lucene index updating fails due to NullPointerException -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HSEARCH-841 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HSEARCH-841 Project: Hibernate Search Issue Type: Bug Components: engine Affects Versions: 3.4.0.Final Environment: Hibernate 3.4.0 (on MySQL 5.1.54, but any database is affected AFAIK) Reporter: Bogdan Butnaru Priority: Critical Fix For: 3.4.1, 4.0.0.Alpha1 When entities are deleted, I noticed an exception with a rather large stack trace (below), which appears to be caused by the fact that Lucene is told to remove from the index a document with a null id. After (quite) a bit of digging, I believe the source is the top of this stack trace: DocumentBuilderIndexedEntity<T>.getId(Object) line: 662 WorkPlan$PerClassWork<T>.extractProperId(Work<T>) line: 233 WorkPlan$PerClassWork<T>.addWork(Work<T>) line: 205 WorkPlan.addWork(Work<T>) line: 79 WorkQueue.add(Work) line: 73 BatchedQueueingProcessor.add(Work, WorkQueue) line: 115 PostTransactionWorkQueueSynchronization.add(Work) line: 70 TransactionalWorker.performWork(Work<?>, TransactionContext) line: 81 FullTextIndexEventListener.processWork(T, Serializable, WorkType, AbstractEvent, boolean) line: 215 FullTextIndexEventListener.processCollectionEvent(AbstractCollectionEvent) line: 262 FullTextIndexEventListener.onPostRemoveCollection(PostCollectionRemoveEvent) line: 227 CollectionRemoveAction.postRemove() line: 146 CollectionRemoveAction.execute() line: 119 ActionQueue.execute(Executable) line: 273 ActionQueue.executeActions(List) line: 265 ActionQueue.executeActions() line: 186 EJB3FlushEventListener(AbstractFlushingEventListener).performExecutions(EventSource) line: 321 EJB3FlushEventListener(DefaultFlushEventListener).onFlush(FlushEvent) line: 51 SessionImpl.flush() line: 1216 SessionImpl.managedFlush() line: 383 JDBCTransaction.commit() line: 133 TransactionImpl.commit() line: 76 [only application-specific lines below here, omitted] Specifically, org.hibernate.search.engine.DocumentBuilderIndexedEntity.getId(Object) does: Object unproxiedEntity = HibernateHelper.unproxy( entity ); return (Serializable) ReflectionHelper.getMemberValue( unproxiedEntity, idGetter ); As far as I can tell, unproxy(entity) will return an entity with a null id if called during postRemove; the returned result is null, although the debugger says that entity.id actually contains the correct (non-null, pre-deletion) value. org.hibernate.search.engine.WorkPlan.PerClassWork.extractProperId(Work<T>), right below the top of the stack, does: if ( entity == null || documentBuilder.requiresProvidedId() || ( work.isIdentifierWasRolledBack() && documentBuilder.isIdMatchingJpaId() )) { return work.getId(); } else { return documentBuilder.getId( entity ); } This condition fails and goes into the "else" block, which is unfortunate, because work.getId() actually contains the correct value. The error doesn't occur right away: org.hibernate.search.engine.WorkPlan.PerClassWork.addWork(Work<T>) (a bit below the top of the stack) calls "entityById.put( id, entityWork );", with id=null due to the above. A while later the following happens (the bottom two items are the same as the stack trace above): DocumentBuilderIndexedEntity<T>.addWorkToQueue(Class<T>, T, Serializable, boolean, boolean, boolean, List<LuceneWork>) line: 355 WorkPlan$PerEntityWork<T>.enqueueLuceneWork(Class<T>, Serializable, AbstractDocumentBuilder<T>, List<LuceneWork>) line: 449 WorkPlan$PerClassWork<T>.enqueueLuceneWork(List<LuceneWork>) line: 250 WorkPlan.getPlannedLuceneWork() line: 150 WorkQueue.prepareWorkPlan() line: 134 BatchedQueueingProcessor.prepareWorks(WorkQueue) line: 124 PostTransactionWorkQueueSynchronization.beforeCompletion() line: 89 EventSourceTransactionContext$DelegateToSynchronizationOnBeforeTx.doBeforeTransactionCompletion(SessionImplementor) line: 172 ActionQueue$BeforeTransactionCompletionProcessQueue.beforeTransactionCompletion() line: 543 ActionQueue.beforeTransactionCompletion() line: 216 SessionImpl.beforeTransactionCompletion(Transaction) line: 571 JDBCContext.beforeTransactionCompletion(Transaction) line: 250 JDBCTransaction.commit() line: 138 TransactionImpl.commit() line: 76 The entry at the top belongs to public void addWorkToQueue(Class<T> entityClass, T entity, Serializable id, boolean delete, boolean add, boolean batch, List<LuceneWork> queue) { String idInString = objectToString( idBridge, idKeywordName, id ); if ( delete ) { queue.add( new DeleteLuceneWork( id, idInString, entityClass ) ); } if ( add ) { queue.add( createAddWork( entityClass, entity, id, idInString, HibernateStatelessInitializer.INSTANCE, batch ) ); } } The argument delete is true and id is null (it's the value of WorkPlan$PerClassWork<T>.enqueueLuceneWork(List<LuceneWork>) gets it from the documentBuilder.getId(entity) call mentioned above).

(Technically, I think this also a bug in lucene; surrounding code, for example Term.equals, does test for null, so either Term.compareTo should do it, or the Term should have been checked for null quite a while earlier. Anyway, the results would have been the same, except for easier debugging.)
