Nullpointer exception when bogus information is entered in the Embargo date
field during submission
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DS-672
URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-672
Project: DSpace 1.x
Issue Type: Bug
Components: XMLUI
Affects Versions: 1.6.2
Environment: The XMLUI on dspace.demo.org
Reporter: Bram Luyten (@mire)
Priority: Minor
Under the submitter demo account I submitted an item in the Sample Items
collection.
I was able to enter something like "qsdf" in the embargo date field and proceed
until the last step of the submission.
When finishing the submission, following nullpointer is thrown:
An error has occurred
java.lang.NullPointerException:

So either the submitter should be forced to either enter a correct date in the
submission step, or the bogus embargo date should be thrown out upon archiving.
