My Virtual Agent was working fine, however, all of a sudden it's showing a message java.lang.NullPointerException: Exception in setting last in-progress conversation and java.lang.NullPointerException: Exception in creating session, in logs, and the virtual agent screen is blanking out. Any lead would be helpful, on how to resolve this please.

https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=3dff8677db2a9410f21f5583ca961919
Basically, it was stuck and the conversation state was Open. It needed to be manually Closed in the table.

Hi there,
Anything written in the logs? Is this also really suddenly, or after a patch?
Did you try things like cache.do, does it work with an other browser/incognito?
If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Hi,
Not sure which logs to check, can you guide?
It doesnt work with any other browser/incognito, I have tried all of that including cache clearing.

System Logs.
What exact messages are written when opening the Virtual Agent?
Did you also verify if there was a recent patch?
If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.
