Issue lies in this method and easily fixable through override of DefaultProductModelUrlResolver but it seems like something that should be fixed OOTB.

 @Override
 protected String getKey(final ProductModel source)
 {
     return CACHE_KEY + "." + source.getPk().toString();
 }

HI ,

To resolve this issue can you please try to add a Default Preview Product at Site?

I am able to resolve this issue after this configuration.

Thanks

we started to work around the different NPE but in the end had to skip this since it seems something to be fixed in the underlying architecture. I remember there was some official info in regards to Smartedit being unable to use catalogs different than Staged/Online versions but can't find it out anymore.
