Null Exception when identity.db.xml is not null????

forjbpm Jan 6, 2006 4:52 PM

When I try to run my test program I get error at following line

IdentityXmlParser.parseEntitiesResource("JBPM_HOME/jbpm/src/resources/hsqldb/identity.db.xml");

java.lang.RuntimeException: couldn't parse identities from stream 'null'

when my identity.db.xml file is not null It has usual content as

<identity>
 <user name="cookie monster" email="cookie.monster@sesamestreet.tv" password="crunchcrunch" />
 <user name="ernie" email="ernie@sesamestreet.tv" password="canthereyoubert,theresabananainmyear" />
 <user name="bert" email="bert@sesamestreet.tv" password="ernie,theresabananainyourear" />
 <user name="grover" email="grover@sesamestreet.tv" password="mayday mayday" />
</identity>

Can anyone tell me the reason???

Thanks!

I guess the JBPM_HOME substring stands for an absolute path in your file system, right? In that case the form of parseEntitiesResource() that takes a String is not the right one to use, because the string identifies a resource in your classpath. Try this instead
InputStream entitiesStream = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream("JBPM_HOME/jbpm/src/resources/hsqldb/identity.db.xml")); Entity[] entities = IdentityXmlParser.parseEntitiesResource(entitiesStream); entitiesStream.close();

This worked!

But Just FYI Even If I provide full path like
"/home/jbpm-starters-kit-3.0.2/..." I get same error in previous case but solution you have provided works perfect in either case.

Thanks Again!
