Getting NULL pointer exception trying to use DefaultCountryDao to get all countries

[former_member632070]

Trying to obtain all countries using Hybris classes but I am getting a NPE. In stack trace my code is trying to get all countries via DefaultCountryDao.findCountries().

Stacktrace:

 java.lang.NullPointerException: null
     at de.hybris.platform.servicelayer.session.impl.DefaultSessionService.executeInLocalView(DefaultSessionService.java:93) ~[coreserver.jar:?]

I have also noticed same issue using commonI18NService.getAllCountries(). Interesting part is in regards to session service. I'm a bit clueless on where to start to investigate more at?
