Getting Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException when starting the AdminServer
Latest progress service pack has been installed
proadsv -start -user <user> -password <password> works fine
CAUSE:
Network settings of the box are not properly configured. In this particular case the domain name within TCP configuration was entered incorrectly.
FIX:
Fix you network setting of the machine.
Ie - ensure that domain name corresponds to an existing domain, "hostname" OS command is in sync with hostname entry recorded in /etc/hosts file as well as IP address in /etc/hosts file is in sync with "ipconfig -a" OS command output.
