Actually I am trying to start the workflow through the java within the service task of another workflow.Here I just wanted to start the out of the box workflow but I am getting null pointer exception even I am passing all variable.
Here am adding java code please go through it.
public class ReviewStrtingwf extends DelegateExecutionScriptBase implements ExecutionListener,JavaDelegate{
public static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(ReviewStrtingwf.class);
private static final String GROUP_NAME = "REVIEWERS";
private static final String WORKFLOW_DESCRIPTION = "Request for approval";
private static final String TASK_DESCRIPTION = "Check contents and review.";
private static final String ACTIVITI_PARALLEL_GROUP_REVIEW_NAME = "activiti$activitiParallelGroupReview";

NodeRef node = child.getChildRef();
logger.debug("node:"+node+"\n");
