Nullpointerexception using cloudwatch collector

[hammad-bbc]

Hello,
I have been trying to run cloudwatch collector, when i try running the collector jar it gives me the following:

2019-09-26 15:41:41,705 [main] WARN o.s.c.a.AnnotationConfigApplicationContext - Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'awsCloudwatchLogAnalyzerTask': Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException

Any ideas?

This usually happens when the collector can't find the properties file. Please check the command you are using to run and make sure the path to properties file is correct.
