GetFTP processor throws NullPointerException randomly on 1.1.1. Recently we have installed the version 1.1.1. We have another server where nifi version 0.6.1 is running. According to our observation GetFTP works fine on version 0.6.1. To replicate the flows we have copied the flow.xml.gz file from nifi 0.6.1 to 1.1.1.Our custom processors are using the API version 0.6.1 in the project.
