Hi, The processor continues to write (to HDFS – the next processor in flow) and doesn’t block any others coming into this processor (MergeContent), so not quite the same observed behaviour as NIFI-2015. If there is anything else you would like me to do to help with this more than happy to help. Regards Conrad

I wonder if this is also related to: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2015 Seems like there is some case where the UUID is ending up as null. -Bryan On Wed, Nov 9, 2016 at 11:57 AM, Conrad Crampton <conrad.cramp...@secdata.com<mailto:conrad.cramp...@secdata.com>> wrote: Hi, I saw this error after I upgraded to 1.0.0 but thought it was maybe due to the issues I had with that upgrade (entirely my fault it turns out!), but I have seen it a number of times since so I turned debugging on to get a better stacktrace. Relevant log section as below. Nothing out of the ordinary, and I never saw this in v0.6.1 or below. I would have raised a Jira issue, but after logging in to Jira it only let me create a service desk request (which didn’t sound right).
