[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBRULES-2043) No decent error message when the scoreDrl doesn't exist (was: Log problems while building the RuleBase)

No decent error message when the scoreDrl doesn't exist (was: Log problems while building the RuleBase) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-2043 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-2043 Project: Drools Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: drools-planner Affects Versions: 5.0.0.M5 Reporter: Dietmar Scheidl Assignee: Geoffrey De Smet Fix For: 5.1.0.CR1 I startet to experiment with the drools-solver but only got a NullPointerException: Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.drools.common.AbstractRuleBase.addPackages(AbstractRuleBase.java:429) at org.drools.reteoo.ReteooRuleBase.addPackage(ReteooRuleBase.java:395) at org.drools.solver.config.localsearch.LocalSearchSolverConfig.buildRuleBase(LocalSearchSolverConfig.java:166) at org.drools.solver.config.localsearch.LocalSearchSolverConfig.buildSolver(LocalSearchSolverConfig.java:137) at org.drools.solver.config.XmlSolverConfigurer.buildSolver(XmlSolverConfigurer.java:73) ... After debugging into this location, I found out that it comes from an error in my scoreDrl. The buildSolver-Method should fail with a more helpful exception or the result of the PackageBuilder should be available to analyse the problems.
