Hello dear xwiki people.
I just did a fresh install of xwiki a few days ago (running as a docker container on a Synology) and found the holiday request extension which I was excited to try out, but sadly I can not get arround the error:
Cannot invoke “String.toUpperCase()” because “style” is null.
I thought it has something to do with my date format under localization, which is: dd/MM/yyyy, but it didnt matter if I changed it or the code written in the extension. I wanted to try to disable the protection to see if thats the issue, but wasn’t able to do that either.
Maby someone here has idea how I could tackle this. THANKS!
Paul
The Velocity code on the page that gives the error when I try to open a new holiday request is:
{{include document="AppWithinMinutes.DynamicMessageTool" context="new" /}}
{{velocity}}
$xwiki.ssx.use("HolidayRequest.SkinExtension")

#set($discard = $xwiki.ssfx.use('uicomponents/widgets/userpicker/userPicker.css'))

#set($title="Request_$datetool.format('yyyy-M-d H:m:s',$datetool.getDate())")
