Dear all, today, after svn up and mvn clean install, I saw that hps-java no longer connects to the conditions system. I.e., I am using EXACTLY the same command I was using last week, but no connection with the database is established: java -jar /local/celentano/eclipse_workspace/hps/distribution/target/hps-distribution-3.2-SNAPSHOT-bin.jar -r /org/hps/steering/users/celentan/LedAnalysis.lcsim -DoutputFile=test -n 100000 -i led_003532.slcio The output is: --- Drivers --- org.lcsim.job.EventMarkerDriver eventInterval = 10000 org.hps.users.celentan.LedAnalysis org.lcsim.util.loop.LCIODriver outputFilePath = test org.lcsim.job.AidaSaveDriver outputFileName = test.aida --- End Drivers --- No input files in XML file. added SvtSensorSetup to beginning of Driver list LedAnalysis::Detector changed was called Feb 25, 2015 5:51:54 PM org.lcsim.job.EventMarkerDriver process INFO: Event 1 with sequence 0 java.lang.NullPointerException at org.hps.users.celentan.LedAnalysis.process(LedAnalysis.java:126) at org.lcsim.util.Driver.doProcess(Driver.java:260) at org.lcsim.util.Driver.processChildren(Driver.java:270) at org.lcsim.util.Driver.process(Driver.java:186) at org.lcsim.util.DriverAdapter.recordSupplied(DriverAdapter.java:74) at org.freehep.record.loop.DefaultRecordLoop.consumeRecord(DefaultRecordLoop.java:832) at org.freehep.record.loop.DefaultRecordLoop.loop(DefaultRecordLoop.java:668) at org.freehep.record.loop.DefaultRecordLoop.execute(DefaultRecordLoop.java:566) at org.lcsim.util.loop.LCSimLoop.loop(LCSimLoop.java:153) at org.lcsim.job.JobControlManager.run(JobControlManager.java:427) at org.hps.job.JobManager.run(JobManager.java:36) at org.lcsim.job.JobControlManager.run(JobControlManager.java:185) at org.hps.job.JobManager.main(JobManager.java:18) where the error refers to the missing conditions. Previously, the output was "much more verbose", and I saw the connection to the conditions database being established. Can someone explain me if this is normal? Do I have to launch reconstruction in a different way? To verify connectivity with the database, I tried: mysql -h hpsdb.jlab.org -u hpsuser -p I can connect properly to the database and see records..
