Hey Everyone,
I am new to the oracle world and not sure how to troubleshoot the following issue.
I rebooted the oracle server that hosts my enterprise manager and upon logging into the Manger non of my charts are generating. I get Unhandled exception during generation of chart * ( * being the chart name). Java.lang.NullPointerException

How do you go about getting the charts to regenerate correctly?

Im not sure what you mean on how can we reproduce what I report. An example is the Top Activity chart is having the issue. Maybe that would help.

Here is the log file for emagent. Since this just started happening this month I have only the log entries for this month. I restarted the console to see if it would fix the issue as well as restarted the server.

NullPointerExceptions are exceptions that occur when you try to use a reference that points to no location in memory (null) as though it were referencing an object. Calling a method on a null reference or trying to access a field of a null reference will trigger a NullPointerException.

For example,

String s = null;
int len = s.length();  // NullPointerException because s is null

So you should check if the variable is null before calling any method on it, for example:

int len;
if (s == null) {
    len = 0;
}
else {
    len = s.length();  // safe, s is never null when you get here
}

How to avoid NullPointerExceptions?

Use the final modifier to enforce good initialization.
Avoid returning null in methods, for example returning empty collections when applicable.
Use annotations @NotNull and @Nullable
Fail fast and use asserts to avoid propagation of null objects through the whole application when they shouldn't be null.
Use equals with a known object first: if("knownObject".equals(unknownObject)
Prefer valueOf() over toString().
Use null safe StringUtils methods StringUtils.isEmpty(null).

How could this help OP who can't modified the code of Oracle EM?
Are you just spamming?
