fuse fabric NullPointerException when trying to create a profile

[virchete]

Hi,

I am receiving a NullPointeException when I tried to create a profile using this instruction inside of the Karaf console:

JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:profile-create --parents cxf gs-cxf-base
Error executing command: java.lang.NullPointerException

I am following the instructions from the getting started page:

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_JBoss_Fuse/6.0/html/Getting_Started/files/Deploy-Fabric-CreateProfile.html

Thanks

David

we've recently patched the code upstream in fabric8 to handle profiles that don't exist a little better. I think the issue is the "cxf" profile no longer exists; try "feature-cxf" which is the 6.1 name of it.

JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:profile-create --parents feature-cxf gs-cxf-base

Yeah I think there is a known issue when you specific a profile name that does not exists, then you get a NPE.
