How to handle "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: rawPassword cannot be null"

byMR
October 6, 2022

In my code, I have User entity who have multiple fields and I’m trying to handle field exception that’s work fine. If any field is null then JVM will throw ConstraintViolationException which is I’m handling perfectly with Custom Exception Handling but my problem is if password field is null then JVM will throw IllegalArgumentException.

My question is why am I getting an IllegalArgumentException instead of a ConstraintViolationException?

Here is my code:

Entity

public class User {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
    private Integer userId;

    @NotBlank(message = "Please Insert Username !!")
    private String userName;
    
    @NotBlank(message = "Please Insert Password !!")
    private String password;
    
    @NotBlank(message = "Please Insert Location !!")
    private String location;

    @Lob
    private String bio;
    
    // Parameterized Constructor
    // getter and setter
}

Service

@Override
public User addUser(UserModel userModel) {
    Optional<Role> role = roleRepo.findById(userModel.getRoleId());
    
    User user = new User();
    user.setUserId(userModel.getUserId());
    user.setUserName(userModel.getUserName());
    user.setPasword(bCryptPasswordEncoder.encode(userModel.getPasword()));
    user.setLocation(userModel.getLocation());
    user.setBio(userModel.getBio());

    return userRepo.save(user);
}

Custom Exception Handler

@ExceptionHandler(ConstraintViolationException.class)
@ResponseStatus(value = HttpStatus.BAD_GATEWAY)
public Map<Path, String> handleConstraintViolationException(ConstraintViolationException ex) {
    Set<ConstraintViolation<?>> constraintViolations = ex.getConstraintViolations();
             
    Map<Path, String> fieldException = new HashMap<>();
    constraintViolations.stream().forEach(e -> {
        fieldException.put(e.getPropertyPath(), e.getMessage());
    });
    return fieldException;
}

Here is my full stack trace:

>Solution :

Because it’s throwing that exception before even reaching the point where it would throw a ConstraintViolationException.

Here

user.setPasword(bCryptPasswordEncoder.encode(userModel.getPasword()));

It’s bCryptPasswordEncoder.encode(userModel.getPasword()) that is throwing the IllegalArgumentException, because it doesn’t expect a null argument.
