Thanks Jean! I'd actually found it just before your helpful message came through. Does look like I have a permissions issue so have asked the system admin to fix that and then we will see if GN will behave.
Although I also found out that my images are pointing to the old instance (thankfully my admin hasn't disabled that 'yet'). Do you know which config file that setting might be in? The images are definitely on the new server as well so I'm guessing it is just a setting somewhere.

Of course !
First, you must check the place of your data directory. for that, if you're not sure, you can look in the Admin page, go to System Information, Data directory:
It will end with something liek data/metadata_data.
In this folder, you have several folders named in a 00x00-00x99 and in those folders, you have numeric sub-folders. Each one of these subfolders corresponds to a metadata entry. It is not the UUID but an Id used internally for geonetwork. I believe it's the row id in the DB.
In each of these folders, you have 2 subfolders : 'public' and 'private'.
In private will be the data uploaded and associated to the metadata
In public will be the thumbnails.
So, let's says you have a metadata with UUID b2e4ed86-815e-4618-a986-3c7443cd7ce1. To find the matching ID, you may look in the DB, or look closely at the queries performed in the user interface. I believe I remember some of them use the ID.
Let's say you found the matching ID in your DB is 581. You will look in .../data/metadata_data/00500-00599/581/public to see if the tumbnail is there.
Of course, ideally, your tomcat user is owner of the whole .../data directory, hence metadata_data and all its subfolders. If not, it can quickly get messy.
I hope this will help !
Have a good night,
cheers,
Jean

I have had some issues with that, but I can't even figure out at this point what folder the thumbnails are in. Can you point me in the right direction?

Hi Kathy,
I suppose you checked your tomcat instance (or jetty or whatelse) has write access to your geonetwork data directory ?

When attempting to add a thumbnail to GeoNetwork 2.10.2 I get a nullpointerexception error.
I checked the list but don't see this specific issue. This is just using the normal web editor logged in as admin.
Wondering if there is a permissions issue somewhere on my server (this is a newly migrated instance -- used to work fine with the 2.8 version).
Thoughts of things I can try to resolve?
Kathy
