java.lang.NullPointerException error when changing theme

[Brian Cohen, geändert vor 11 Jahren.]

I am logged in as a system Adminstrator, and have site Administrator and Owner roles as well. I downloaded and deployed some custom themes, and when I try to select them and save, I get this in catalina.out:

01:23:32,503 ERROR [render_portlet_jsp:154] java.lang.NullPointerException

THis is on CentOS 6.2 64-bit with Java version:

java -version
java version "1.6.0_32"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_32-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.7-b02, mixed mode)

Any ideas?

Does the version of the theme you're trying to deploy supported by the version of liferay you're using? Theme isn't liferay version independent.

It's the Cleap Community theme, and it says Liferay 6.0.4+

But even if I just use the Classic theme, and switch from Blue to Green, I get the same NullPointerException, and I see the follwing error in the browser (which I also saw beforehand when trying to switch themes entirely:

Site Pages is temporarily unavailable

So which liferay version and bundle are you using?

I'm guessing that there is a logo assigned in your settings (or org or community, whatever) that you do not have locally. Upload a replacement logo file and try again.

I just installed in on my Liferay 6.1.0 without any problem. The theme is replacing the logo with the portal name.

Try "Control Panel" -> "Portal Settings" -> "Display Settings" . Make sure "Allow site administrators to use their own logo" is checked.

Thanks, it's working for me.

I have this option ticked but I am also getting the NPE on 6.1.0 when changing classic theme colour.
Any other suggestions?

I fixed this by patching Glassfish as per http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-25521
