Question:

Description:
I have deployed Proton CEP on our own server on CentOS and Tomcat 7.

The call to

is failing with the exception:

java.lang.NullPointerException

Other APIs like work fine. For example:

PUT ProtonOnWebServerAdmin/resources/instances/ProtonOnWebServer
returns 200 OK

I can also successfully change the stage of the running instance with: ProtonOnWebServerAdmin/resources/instances/ProtonOnWebServer

Could you help me solve this?
