java.lang.NullPointerException at InjectingConstraintValidatorFactory.java:47 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: SEAMVALIDATE-14 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMVALIDATE-14 Project: Seam Validation Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.0.0.CR1 Environment: seam-3.0.0.CR1 org.hibernate:hibernate-validator:jar:4.2.0.Beta1 JBoss-6.0.0.Final Mojarra- JSF 2.0 Reporter: Esteve Aviles Assignee: Gunnar Morling Fix For: 3.0.0.Final Hi, I get a NullPointerException when trying to use Bean Validation with Seam 3. I can get Bean Validation work with Seam 3, with and without Seam Valitation. Is it required to use seam validations to enable Bean Validation basic features? I have enabled: validation.xml and interceptor <class>org.jboss.seam.validation.ValidationInterceptor</class>. With this configuration I get: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.jboss.seam.validation.InjectingConstraintValidatorFactory.getInstance(InjectingConstraintValidatorFactory.java:47) at org.hibernate.validator.engine.ConstraintTree.createAndInitializeValidator(ConstraintTree.java:338) at org.hibernate.validator.engine.ConstraintTree.getInitializedValidator(ConstraintTree.java:317) at org.hibernate.validator.engine.ConstraintTree.validateConstraints(ConstraintTree.java:144) at org.hibernate.validator.engine.ConstraintTree.validateConstraints(ConstraintTree.java:117) at org.hibernate.validator.metadata.MetaConstraint.validateConstraint(MetaConstraint.java:84) at org.hibernate.validator.engine.ValidatorImpl.validateValueForGroup(ValidatorImpl.java:756) at org.hibernate.validator.engine.ValidatorImpl.validateValue(ValidatorImpl.java:691) at org.hibernate.validator.engine.ValidatorImpl.validateValue(ValidatorImpl.java:155) at javax.faces.validator.BeanValidator.validate(BeanValidator.java:301) at javax.faces.component.UIInput.validateValue(UIInput.java:1142) at javax.faces.component.UIInput.validate(UIInput.java:960) at javax.faces.component.UIInput.executeValidate(UIInput.java:1204) at javax.faces.component.UIInput.processValidators(UIInput.java:693) at javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase.processValidators(UIComponentBase.java:1081) at javax.faces.component.UIForm.processValidators(UIForm.java:240) at javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase.processValidators(UIComponentBase.java:1081) at javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase.processValidators(UIComponentBase.java:1081) at javax.faces.component.UIViewRoot.processValidators(UIViewRoot.java:1159) at com.sun.faces.lifecycle.ProcessValidationsPhase.execute(ProcessValidationsPhase.java:72) at com.sun.faces.lifecycle.Phase.doPhase(Phase.java:97) at com.sun.faces.lifecycle.LifecycleImpl.execute(LifecycleImpl.java:114) at javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:308) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:324) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:242) at org.jboss.weld.servlet.ConversationPropagationFilter.doFilter(ConversationPropagationFilter.java:67) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:274) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:242) at org.jboss.seam.servlet.exception.CatchExceptionFilter.doFilter(CatchExceptionFilter.java:75) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:274) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:242) at org.jboss.seam.servlet.event.ServletEventBridgeFilter.doFilter(ServletEventBridgeFilter.java:79) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:274) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:242) at com.ocpsoft.pretty.PrettyFilter.doFilter(PrettyFilter.java:112) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:274) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:242) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperValve.java:275) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:191) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.SecurityAssociationValve.invoke(SecurityAssociationValve.java:181) at org.jboss.modcluster.catalina.CatalinaContext$RequestListenerValve.event(CatalinaContext.java:285) at org.jboss.modcluster.catalina.CatalinaContext$RequestListenerValve.invoke(CatalinaContext.java:261) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.JaccContextValve.invoke(JaccContextValve.java:88) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.SecurityContextEstablishmentValve.invoke(SecurityContextEstablishmentValve.java:100) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.java:127) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:102) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.jca.CachedConnectionValve.invoke(CachedConnectionValve.java:158) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:109) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.request.ActiveRequestResponseCacheValve.invoke(ActiveRequestResponseCacheValve.java:53) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:362) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:877) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11Protocol.java:654) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:951) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)
