Hi,
I’m getting this error when running liquibase sqlcl. Any clue on what this means?

Hi @joesiga - Oracle sqlcl is an Oracle product that leverages the open-source version of Liquibase to provide database change management capabilities for Oracle databases. Since they built this product independently, I don’t have much insight.

From the stack trace, it appears that their software generates a null pointer exception in the database connection part of the code. I suggest checking with Oracle support to see if they are aware of the issue and have a fix.
