This is not specific to youtube, loading any website and clicking on the 
URL/hyperlinks leads to this error.

null

Failed to load.

Handling null exception to errorText has failed and still the error message 
appears.

Performing the following

search://something

even leads to the error message. Something seems to be wrong in loadHandler.

I'm not experiencing this problem with the 64-bit build, but it's possible that 
you're failing to load google.com and consequently ending up in onLoadError. 
Are you perhaps behind a proxy? Does checking errorText != null in onLoadError 
fix the NPE for you?

Possible NPE fixed in revision 87.

Hi Marshall,

This issue occurs only in win32 it seems. I have tested the win64 build and it 
works fine and the load error's doesn't occur and the NPE too didn't occur. But 
the same is still occuring with win32 build.

I have added the following

errorMsg_ += "<p>" + (null == errorText && errorText == null ? "" : errorText) 
+ "</p>";

for the fix. Still the NPE is thrown in the background, but the application 
continues to load the page.

Pls suggest me on this. Thanks for the Support.

Regards,
Arun

After the fix in #6, the application didn't show any error messages, but throws 
the NPE. is there a way to fix or should we ignore this? Just curious on why 
this occurs with win32 build alone?

Regards,
Arun

@#8: What is the call stack for the NPE that you're getting now? Is it the same 
as before? Perhaps errorText is not what's causing the problem?

Yes Marshall,

The errorText is what causing the issue. Adding the null check didn't prevent 
from throwing the error messages in the win32 build, while the win64 build 
doesn't throw any errors.

This error still occurs with the latest build of win32.

The NullPointerException still occurs when i try to open pages or links even 
with the latest revision 110.

//win32 bug with cef_binary_3.2171.1902_windows32, jcef r115 

errorText is instance of ErrorCode.

if((Object)errorText instanceof ErrorCode) {
                     errorCode = (ErrorCode)(Object)errorText;
                    errorText = errorCode.name();  
}

failedUrl is always empty string
