jevd-client Nullpointer-Exception

[goldzahn]

Hi,

using the jevd-client with "--recursive" I always get the following after a while:

ERROR: Unexpected runtime error occurred!
java.lang.NullPointerException

Looking at victims.trace.db I see:

Database is already closed (to disable automatic closing at VM shutdown, add ";DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE" to the db URL) [90121-171]

I tried to add ";DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE" to the db URL, but I always get "invalid setting"

Maybe the url is wrong (I tried a lot of different): java -jar jevd-client-0.9.jar --victims-db-url=jdbc:h2:victims.h2.db;DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE

Any idea?

Thanks in advance

@goldzahn Thanks for the bug report.

It's not clear to me what version of the victims-client you are using. e.g. I'm not sure jevd-client-0.9.jar is from any official release?

Can you please try to reproduce the issue using the current head, or failing that one of the more recent alpha releases?

Also if you add the --verbose flag when running the command you will hopefully get a more useful stack trace.

Thanks

Hi,
I forgot to mention that I used the 0.9-version that redhat offers at https://access.redhat.com/labs/jevd/.
I will give the other versions a try and report the results
Thanks

@goldzahn I am not sure what is happening there, perhaps the a previous scan terminated incorrectly. Perhaps try removing ~/.victims/ and retrying.

I was unable to reproduce the issue.

$ md5sum jevd-client-0.9.jar 
560dce449c6ef9980cef7021ce7d3807  jevd-client-0.9.jar
$ java -jar jevd-client-0.9.jar --recursive ~/.m2/repository/log4j/

Hi,

I found the jar file that leads to the runtime error: it's called crystal_icon.jar and it contains an old kde icon theme that only contains png-files and one text file, no classes.

All other jars and ears can be scanned successfully.

The problem for me is, that I would like to scan the whole directory structure recursively, but every time it scans this jar which is included in some projects the scanning exits.

Thanks
