hi,
as error log say :

java.lang.NumberFormatException: null
...
Integer.parseInt(unknown)

you've got a null value.
and you try to use a method with a null value.
is it normal ?
make some profiling about your source data.
correct source or/and filter null value .
and so on!

Thank you !!
i fixed the issue by allowing null values for my columns.
Hope this solution will not have a bad impact.

hope so
better to ask if value can be null , than waiting for some "bad thing" in future.
