[kepler-users] Provanance module in custom suite

Hi Madhavi,

I'm not sure what's causing this problem, David may have a better idea.
Ordering is important when using the Module Manager, when you tried to use provenance with your module, provenance should be beneath your module in the Selected Modules list. Was this the case?

You might also look at the workflow-run-manager-2.1 module, which sits on top of the provenance module to see what kind of differences there are between it and your suite. 

To see what exactly is causing the NPE, you could replace the ConfigurationManager.getProperties(Module module) method with this, and again try to use your suite to get the error.

  public List<ConfigurationProperty> getProperties(Module module)
  {
    //System.out.println("getting properties for module " + module.getName());
    Vector<ConfigurationProperty> v = new Vector<ConfigurationProperty>();
    for (int i = 0; i < propertyList.size(); i++)
    {
      ConfigurationProperty prop = propertyList.get(i);
      if (prop.getModule() == null){
    	  System.out.println("Error prop.getModule() == null");
      }
      else if (prop.getModule().getName() == null){
    	  System.out.println("Error prop.getModule().getName() == null");
      }
      if (module.getName() == null){
    	  System.out.println("Error prop.getModule().getName() == null");
      }
      if (prop.getModule().getName().equals(module.getName()))
      {
        v.add(prop);
      }
    }
    return v;
  }

Are you now unable to restart Kepler? I believe David is or was working on making the module manager able to start up stand-alone so that a user is able to fix situations like this, and get kepler to start up again. One fix is to manually edit the build-area/modules.txt file to remove the provenance suite.

But then it is not possible to restart Kelper with this new suite + provenance  Module. It throws exception while start-up.
