I found the proximate cause: Not having UPDINDEX set to true() on the failing 
server.

When I set UPDINDEX to true on the target database, then the load succeeded.

Tracking through the Java code it looks like a failure to initialize the idmap 
member of the DiskData object. This code looks like it could be the issue:

// open data and indexes
init();
if(meta.updindex) {
  idmap = new IdPreMap(meta.dbFile(DATAIDP));
  if(meta.textindex) textIndex = new UpdatableDiskValues(this, IndexType.TEXT);
  if(meta.attrindex) attrIndex = new UpdatableDiskValues(this, 
IndexType.ATTRIBUTE);
  if(meta.tokenindex) tokenIndex = new UpdatableDiskValues(this, 
IndexType.TOKEN);
} else {
  if(meta.textindex) textIndex = new DiskValues(this, IndexType.TEXT);
  if(meta.attrindex) attrIndex = new DiskValues(this, IndexType.ATTRIBUTE);
  if(meta.tokenindex) tokenIndex = new DiskValues(this, IndexType.TOKEN);
}
if(meta.ftindex) ftIndex = new FTIndex(this);

The idmap is only set of meta.updIndex is true.

Cheers,

E.

Subject: Consistent NPE loading content on one server, other server works
I have two servers running the same code, both on 10.7. I have a REST API 
handler that takes data as input and stores it in a database, applying some 
preprocessing to the data first.

The data successfully loads on my dev server and consistently fails on the 
production server, with this Java failure:

[INFO] Posting 
"/Users/eliot.kimber/git-basex/product-content-analytics/analytics/adobe/adobe-analytics-Utah_Pages_Viewed_Aug2023-clean.csv"

loaded.

The two servers are essentially identical Linux servers, although the 
production server has more resources.

Any idea what might cause this failure or what I can do to diagnose it?

There must be some non-obvious difference in these two servers but I don’t know 
what to look for.

The code doing the load to a database is:

    let $reportPath as xs:string :=
        
``[/`{$analyticsmgmt:csvPathRoot}`/`{$source}`/`{$reportType}`/`{$reportName}`.xml]``
    let $msg := prof:dump(``[[INFO] Storing analytics report 
"`{$reportPath}`"]``)
    let $csv := $csv transform with { insert node attribute {'timestamp'} 
{$timeStampStr} into ./* }
    let $csv := $csv transform with { 
analyticsmgmt:dispatchAnalysticsStorePreProcessing($reportName, ., $debug) }
    return
    try {
      (db:put($analyticsDb, $csv, $reportPath),
       db:optimize($analyticsDb,
       true(),
         map{
           'attrindex' : true(),
           'tokenindex' : true(),
           'updindex' : true()
         })
      )
    } catch * {
      util:logToConsole(
        'analyticsmgmt:storeAnalyticsCsvReport',
        ``[`{$err:code}`: `{$err:description}`]``,
        'error'
      )
    }

Thanks,

Eliot
