Keycloak empty User-Attribute causes NPE


Fixing NPE in Keycloak due to non-existent user attribute

In Keycloak, an error might be encountered as below:

ERROR [org.keycloak.services.error.KeycloakErrorHandler] (default task-1) Uncaught server error: java.lang.NullPointerException

This is the case when a client has been configured on keycloak and has certain scopes set on 'Assigned Default Client Scopes' field.
This will result in Keycloak throwing a NullPointerException whenever an access token is generated.


Removing the additional scope not required in the config will help fix NPE.


Do try it out, and let me know if it works.

Do drop some comments is any issues are faced.

Add/Modify Header Values in Java HttpServletRequest using Servlet Filters

Add/Modify Header Values in Java HttpServletRequest using Servlet Filters Steps to Modify Request Headers in a Servlet Request.
