Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-353: ---------------------------------- It's not quite that -- columnVector is assigned in the constructor and is never null, so can't cause the NPE. It would be inside the call to get() anyhow if that's the case. columnVector is not initialized in configure(). configure() is def. called by the framework though I don't know exactly where. MapRunner isn't within our code in any event. > java.lang.NullPointerException in RecommenderMapper > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-353 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-353 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Collaborative Filtering > Affects Versions: 0.4 > Reporter: Hui Wen Han > Fix For: 0.4 > > > java.lang.NullPointerException > at > org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.hadoop.item.RecommenderMapper$CooccurrenceCache.get(RecommenderMapper.java:169) > at > org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.hadoop.item.RecommenderMapper$CooccurrenceCache.get(RecommenderMapper.java:154) > at > org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.impl.common.Cache.getAndCacheValue(Cache.java:125) > at org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.impl.common.Cache.get(Cache.java:94) > at > org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.hadoop.item.RecommenderMapper.map(RecommenderMapper.java:111) > at > org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.hadoop.item.RecommenderMapper.map(RecommenderMapper.java:52) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:50) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.runOldMapper(MapTask.java:358) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:307) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child.main(Child.java:170) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
