Question

Java.null.pointer error while migrating to Coldfusion18.

Hi,

I’m migrating from cf11 project to CF18 with the help of this resource (https://forums.adobe.com/message/10661306#10661306). I have kept a copy of cf11 neo*.xml files and uninstalled cf11. Proceeding further and installing cf118 and done kept the neo*.xml files in the cfuion/lib folder, I have done the configurations of IIS and CFAdmin properly. But after all the setup I’m facing Java.null.pointer exception. I have checked the java and jvm section of cfadmin where the JVM Argumentslooks like this (

-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005 -server –add-opens=java.rmi/sun.rmi.transport=ALL-UNNAMED –add-opens=java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED –add-modules=java.xml.ws –add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED –add-opens=java.base/sun.util.cldr=ALL-UNNAMED –add-opens=java.base/sun.util.locale.provider=ALL-UNNAMED -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=192m -XX:+UseParallelGC -Xbatch -Djdk.attach.allowAttachSelf=true -Dcoldfusion.home={application.home} -Duser.language=en -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home} -Dcom.sun.xml.bind.v2.bytecode.ClassTailor.noOptimize=true -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/lib -Dorg.apache.coyote.USE_CUSTOM_STATUS_MSG_IN_HEADER=true -Dcoldfusion.jsafe.defaultalgo=FIPS186Random -Dorg.eclipse.jetty.util.log.class=org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.JavaUtilLog -Djava.util.logging.config.file={application.home}/lib/logging.properties -Djava.locale.providers=COMPAT,SPI -Dsun.font.layoutengine=icu ).

I have found some UNNAMED values there. Is there some issue with the same?

There is a hibernate.hbm.xml file in my project config file, which is getting generated and if I remove that file then some abstract issue is thrown.

I have mentioned below the error which I’m getting.
I have tried multiple ways to overcome it but cannot do it. Please help me with this. I’m new to coldfusion.

Well, did you save the files that WERE there before moving these ones from 11 in? If so, you could try putting them back.

Also, since you had 11 on the machine, did you uninstall it BEFORE installing 2018? You didn't need to. If it was there (running or not), cf would have detected it and offered to import the cf11 settings automatically.

If you can restore the original 2018 neo*.xml files, there is yet another way to migrate the cf11 settings in, using that copy of the 11 neo*.xml files--but not by putting them IN the 2018 cfusion/lib. Instead there is a migration feature you can enable, where you'd put those files for 11 in a special directory and edit another xml file in 2018 to tell it to import them.

But you'd need to start with a working cf2018 and it's own neo files. If you can't restore them, then yes, rerun the installer, and after getting logged in, look into this :

Thanks for replying me Charlie.

Actually for the cf11 neo*.xml files I have saved them inside the cfusion\lib\cf11settings folder and for the cf2018 neo*.xml files I have not done any changes its there inside the cfusion\lib folder.

## Also, since you had 11 on the machine, did you uninstall it BEFORE installing 2018?

ans. yes I kept the backup of neo*.xml files for the cf11 and uninstalled it.

Well I have been following the steps from this reference ( https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/products/coldfusion/pdfs/cf2018/cf2018-migration-guide.pdf ).

I can see now the changes in cf2018 administrator with my previous db connection and mappings.

I think I have missed something with the jvm arguments as there are some args with "UNNAMED". The jvm args in cf2018 adminstrator looks like this -->

-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005 -server –add-opens=java.rmi/sun.rmi.transport=ALL-UNNAMED –add-opens=java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED –add-modules=java.xml.ws –add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED –add-opens=java.base/sun.util.cldr=ALL-UNNAMED –add-opens=java.base/sun.util.locale.provider=ALL-UNNAMED -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=192m -XX:+UseParallelGC -Xbatch -Djdk.attach.allowAttachSelf=true -Dcoldfusion.home={application.home} -Duser.language=en -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home} -Dcom.sun.xml.bind.v2.bytecode.ClassTailor.noOptimize=true -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/lib -Dorg.apache.coyote.USE_CUSTOM_STATUS_MSG_IN_HEADER=true -Dcoldfusion.jsafe.defaultalgo=FIPS186Random -Dorg.eclipse.jetty.util.log.class=org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.JavaUtilLog -Djava.util.logging.config.file={application.home}/lib/logging.properties -Djava.locale.providers=COMPAT,SPI -Dsun.font.layoutengine=icu

May be because of that its showing java.null.pointer exception. And in cf11 I was using jdk 8 and now I have installed jdk10 for the cf2018.

Are you saying you put one or more of the neo*.xml files from cf11 into the cf2018 lib folder? You should not do that

Ok, then shall I start a fresh installation with cf2018?
