[NETCONF-465] NETCONF NullPointer exception when no YANG modules found in schema cache

Fri, 15 Mar 2019 22:22:45 +0000

The device does not support yang-library nor netconf-monitoring, so it is required to import schema files manually into the schema cache. If an operator/administrator has forgotten to import all schema files correctly, there is no meaningful error message - but a NullPointerException occurs.
