NullPointerException during server startup after migrating to EPP 5.2
Environment
- JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform (EPP) 5.2.0.GA
Issue
We have used the JBoss EPP 5.1 version and have now followed the steps in the 5.2 migration guide in order to take the JBoss EPP 5.2 into use.
We have also implemented our own portal extension.
When starting the server we noticed the following error. What might be causing this? And what should we do in order to get rid of this error?
ERROR [Portal:UserPortalConfigService] (main) Could not import initial data
