Setup throws an NPE error when using SQL Server with Integrated Security

Current Situation

When having a mssql database configured with integrated security
JOC Cockpit Setup and JOC Cockpit start fails with an NPE.

java.sql.SQLException: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "String.startsWith(String)" because "propertyValue" is null
	at com.sos.commons.hibernate.configuration.resolver.SOSHibernateEncryptionResolver.hasEncryptedValue(SOSHibernateEncryptionResolver.java:167)

url                  = jdbc:sqlserver://sql_host:49554;IntegratedSecurity=true;sendStringParametersAsUnicode=false;selectMethod=cursor;databaseName=scheduler

Desired Behaviour

JOC Cockpit installation should run without nullpointer exception.

Workaround 1

Change the configuration file hibernate.cfg.xml. Use User/Password instead of integreated security.

Workaround 2

• configure empty username and password hibernate elements

  <property name="hibernate.connection.username"></property>
  <property name="hibernate.connection.password"></property>
