NullPointerException at start of Talend Studio

[Anonymous]

Every time i launch Talend Studio i get a dialog box with the only text: "java.lang.NullPointerException" and an OK button.

The dialog comes before the "Select Project" dialog.

I click OK and Talend Studio launches as normal.

OS: Windows 10 x64

Java: 1.8.0_191

Talend Studio 6.5.1

@Slup,it is not able to validate the license.

But Talend Studio starts up fully licensed for Integration and ESB work, which is the license we bought (after i click OK on the NullPointerException).

And if that is the problem then there is a UI bug, because the alert box is not very informative:

Hello,

Could you please give us some detailed steps to repro your issue?

Are you using SVN as repository or it is local connection?

Best regards

Hello,

As we known that studio must get the git user name from TAC at least, are you setting "GIT login" and "GIT Password" for your user?

Here is online documentation about:TalendHelpCenter:Best Practices: Using Git with Talend 6.2 and later versions

Best regards

Yes I have entered my GitHub login into TAC.

I have no problem connecting to TAC and selecting my project and working with Git even with a local branch

I have a very similar issue, for me it's like this:

I launch Talend Studio

The splash screen comes on

(wait a long time)

git password pop-up

The NullPointerException dialog comes on

I click OK

git password pop-up again

The "Select Project" screen comes on

I select project

Talend Studio comes on

Did you have any success resolving this in the mean time?

The problem was due to Workspace corruption.

Solution:

Create a new Workspace from scratch
