7.1.1 Install immediately fails with NullPointerException
7.1.1 Install immediately fails with NullPointerException in VolumeRepository.java
There is no way this product should have been released like this. I am installing onto AIX 6.1.5 SP1. I've tried fixing it myself to no avail. Not sure where to turn now... downloading 7.1.1.4 from jazz.net now but will take 1.5 hours. Below is the stacktrace from the logs: <method>postWindowOpen</method> <message> java.lang.NullPointerException java.lang.NullPointerException </message> <exception> java.lang.NullPointerException <stack>com.ibm.cic.common.core.volrepo.VolumeRepository.getAllOfferings(VolumeRepository.java:219)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.common.core.repository.AbstractBaseRepository.findOffering(AbstractBaseRepository.java:396)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.common.core.internal.repository.RepositoryRef.findOffering(RepositoryRef.java:158)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.common.core.repository.RepositoryGroup.findOffering(RepositoryGroup.java:601)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.common.core.repository.UpdateOfferingUtils.findOfferingOrUpdateOrFix(UpdateOfferingUtils.java:172)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.core.Agent.findOfferingOrFix(Agent.java:1868)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.core.internal.commands.AbstractCommand.getOfferingOrFix(AbstractCommand.java:98)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.core.internal.commands.InstallCommand.getAsInputJob(InstallCommand.java:226)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.core.internal.commands.InstallCommand.getAsInputJobs(InstallCommand.java:468)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.internal.ui.AgentUI.setWizardJobs(AgentUI.java:695)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.internal.ui.AgentUIWorkbenchAdvisor.getInitialWindowPerspectiveId(AgentUIWorkbenchAdvisor.java:97)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.getDefaultPerspectiveId(Workbench.java:2834)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.registry.PerspectiveRegistry.verifyDefaultPerspective(PerspectiveRegistry.java:636)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.registry.PerspectiveRegistry.load(PerspectiveRegistry.java:415)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.WorkbenchPlugin$2.runWithException(WorkbenchPlugin.java:592)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.StartupThreading$StartupRunnable.run(StartupThreading.java:31)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.RunnableLock.run(RunnableLock.java:35)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Synchronizer.runAsyncMessages(Synchronizer.java:133)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.runAsyncMessages(Display.java:3118)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.readAndDispatch(Display.java:2816)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.application.WorkbenchAdvisor.openWindows(WorkbenchAdvisor.java:803)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench$27.runWithException(Workbench.java:1361)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.StartupThreading$StartupRunnable.run(StartupThreading.java:31)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.RunnableLock.run(RunnableLock.java:35)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Synchronizer.runAsyncMessages(Synchronizer.java:133)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.runAsyncMessages(Display.java:3118)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.readAndDispatch(Display.java:2816)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runUI(Workbench.java:2293)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.access$4(Workbench.java:2198)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench$5.run(Workbench.java:493)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.core.databinding.observable.Realm.runWithDefault(Realm.java:288)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.createAndRunWorkbench(Workbench.java:488)</stack> <stack>org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI.createAndRunWorkbench(PlatformUI.java:149)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.internal.ui.AgentUIApplication.launch(AgentUIApplication.java:225)</stack> <stack>com.ibm.cic.agent.internal.ui.AgentUIApplication.run(AgentUIApplication.java:80)</stack> <stack>sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)</stack> <stack>sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:79)</stack> <stack>sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43)</stack> <stack>java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:618)</stack> |

I would highly recommend that you check the supported platforms -
Rational Build Forge does not yet support AIX 6.1 which may be what is causing your problem (Rational Build Forge supports AIX 5.3 in the release you are attempting to install).

Thanks David, I did see that build forge was supported on 5.3 while 6.1 was not mentioned. I will try installing onto 5.3. Do you know when AIX 6 support will come?
