This is probably caused by UniProt JAPI updates, in October there was a switch from HTTP to HTTPS. See JAPI change log.
Replacing japi-1.0.9.jar
with the latest version japi-1.0.16.jar
fixes this and allows MetaProteomeAnalyzer to retrieve UniProt entries as expected.
Thank you for reporting this issue! Yes, you are right and the latest version of MPA Portable (ver. 1.8.0) now features the latest UniProtJAPI version 1.0.16. A couple of tests were run and the nullpointer exception does not seem to come up again.
When I run the MetaProteomeAnalyzer it does not retrieve any taxonomic or functional meta-information (ontology, pathways, etc.) for any identified proteins, it only shows the list of peptides and proteins.
I have tested on Windows and Linux, using both the GUI and command line. It doesn't work even using the sample Ebendorf data from the tutorial.
Is this a known bug?
Below is the error message from a Linux terminal:
