What event do you have the tasklistener registered against?

If it is the assign event, you may not have a fully populated task which could lead to such an NPE.

Ok, so it isnt the partially populated task object that is the problem.

Perhaps you have no tenant associated. Can you tell us what line the NPE is coming from (i.e. stack trace)?

Thanks,
Greg

String classPk= WorkflowTaskManagerUtil.getWorkflowTask(compId, workflowTaskId).getOptionalAttributes().get("entryClassPK").toString();

The above mentioned line make NPE, and give warning is cannot find taskId

Ok, so I see now why you wont attach a stack trace.
It appears as though you are using the Liferay-Activiti connector and the error is coming out of the Liferay code.

Can you confirm the workflowTaskId is populated with a valid id?

Thx,

Greg

If that's the case then the issue lies within the Liferay library.

Not sure I can hlp with that have never used the plugin, perhaps someone else on teh forum has worked with the Liferay module.
