Response Error 500 in Spring (HttpStatus field null pointer)

I have build a rest web service using spring. I am getting 500 server error when the service is called.

Controller class :

@RequestMapping(value = "/wordlist", method = RequestMethod.GET)  
public ResponseEntity getList(@RequestHeader("wordid") int wordId) {  
    ResponseList responseObejct = wordService.getList(wordId); 
    return ResponseEntity.status(responseObejct.getStatusCode()).body(responseObejct.getResponseWordList());
}

DaoImplementation :

String listHql = "from Word where wordId > ? or wordId = ?";
Query query = session.createQuery(listHql);
query.setParameter(0, wordId);
query.setParameter(1, wordId);
query.setMaxResults(30);
        
if(query.list().size()>0){
    response.setStatusCode(HttpStatus.OK);
    response.setResponseWordList((ArrayList<Word>)query.list());
} else {
    response.setStatusCode(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);
}
session.getTransaction().commit();

ResponseList.java (for response)

public class ResponseList {
    
    private ArrayList<Word> responseWordList;
    private HttpStatus statusCode ;
            
    public ArrayList<Word> getResponseWordList() {
        return responseWordList;
    }
    
    public void setResponseWordList(ArrayList<Word> responseWordList) {
        this.responseWordList = responseWordList;
    }

    public HttpStatus getStatusCode() {
        return statusCode;
    }

    public void setStatusCode(HttpStatus statusCode) {
        this.statusCode = statusCode;
    }       
        
}

Error is:

I cannot understand why the error is coming. Please help.

The way you are calling ResponseEntity.status() is not valid. It says

The method status(HttpStatus) is undefined for the type 
ResponseEntity

To fix this try returning a ResponseEntity from your controller method like :

@RequestMapping(value = "/wordlist", method = RequestMethod.GET)  
public ResponseEntity<ResponseList> getList(@RequestHeader("wordid") int wordId) {  
     ResponseList responseObejct = wordService.getList(wordId); 
     ResponseEntity<ResponseList> responseEntity = new ResponseEntity<>(responseObejct, HttpStatus.OK);
     return responseEntity;
}

I ran into the same issue, and it turned out that this was fixed in Spring 4.3.1. However, I cannot find a JIRA issue for that. Maybe it is a side-effect on another fix.

If you still have the problem (or if anyone else steps into this), please try again with 4.3.1 or higher.
