Attempt to de-reference a null object
I'm running int0 this error - attempt to de-reference a null object.
My scenario - VFP published as force.com site with a class to save a record first from entered fields and add attachmnet there as well if user attached that:
public class savemcd {
public savemcd(ApexPages.StandardController controller)
{
}
Public Attachment myfile;
Public Attachment getmyfile()
{
myfile = new Attachment();
return myfile;
}
Public Misconduct__c mymscd;
Public Misconduct__c getmymscd()
{
mymscd = new Misconduct__c();
return mymscd;
}
Public Pagereference Savedoc()
{
if (mymscd.name != null){
Misconduct__c mcd = new Misconduct__c(Submitter__c=mymscd.Submitter__c, Phone_number__c=mymscd.Phone_number__c, Email__c=mymscd.Email__c, Description__c=mymscd.Description__c );
insert mcd;
string result = mcd.id;
if (myfile.name != null)
{
Attachment a = new Attachment(parentId = result, name=myfile.name, body = myfile.body);
/* insert the attachment */
insert a;
}
}
return NULL;
}
}
What do I do wrong?

Thank you for you comment. Indeed it helps, error is not there anymore but it doesn't save a record (attachment neither). When I push Submit button it only clears attachment selection field, other fields stay untouched and even validation rule on phone number field doesn't fire when I put there letters.
My VFP is following. Thank you in advance.
