      Hi Team,

      I am facing FATAL: null java.lang.NullPointerException error during build.

      I have a configuration of jobfenin plugin where I want to make sure all mapped job in fanin plugin execute first. I have 10 jobs which has to build first and all the job are getting built successfully but jobfanin plugin is not working as expected. I am getting below error in one of the job.

      FATAL: null
      java.lang.NullPointerException

      Which might be restricting the job to trigger.

      Please help resolve this issue

          That error is message is not occurring any more but the original issue remains there. My fanin plugin is not working. I have configured 10 jobs which should execute first successfully and it is happening but my job having fanin configuration is not getting called. I have to trigger it manually.

          Kindly suggest what could be the causing this issue.

          Jobs are given in format below

          A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L

          The issue might be with any of above jobs. If any of these are never build or has last successful build you will not get trigger, To debugg the issue what i can suggest is start with Limited jobs such as 'A,B,C' and keep on adding more jobs to configuration and check if trigger is working, because I don't see any other reason for trigger to fail. BTW I assume instead of "A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L" you have actual Job Id's

          Yes, A,B,C .... are just for example, I have given actual jobs name in fanin configuration..
          I have tried it with single job but still fanin is not working. single job i.e A has built successfully but fanin have not called.

          Single job is getting called if I un check "Watch upstream projects recursively " checkbox.

          so do I need to uncheck "Watch upstream projects recursively " for all the jobs and try?
          Kindly tell me the purpose of "Watch upstream projects recursively "

          Not sure how I can help here, Can you post your configuration, related logs that you can see.

          I just tried adding another job without checking "Watch upstream projects recursively".
          what i did is as below.

          there are two jobs mapped now A,B. I just triggered A and have not triggered B.
          A built successfully and fanin job gets called. It should have not happened as job B was not triggered.

          If B is not In Queue and it's last build was successful, then trigger will happen. Because this plugin can't check if B was not executed after A

          I have attached fanin config screenshot with config.doc file
