Hi, I am trying to read the content of a document whitin a custom action. I can get the Node and the NodeRef using browseBean.getDocument().Then I try to use fileFolderService.getReader(nodeRef) to get the content but when I call that function Alfresco throws an exception:java.lang.NullPointerExcept

The problem is in line # 67

fileFolderService = new FileFolderServiceImpl();

You should never instantiate a spring service bean using "new". Rather inject the service bean in your faces bean in faces-config-bean.xml and declare a "getter" and "setter" of your service bean in your custom action. This is the basic fundamental of spring's dependency injection.

Hope this helps.
