1. Create and build connector extensions (is not needed to reproduce, as attached the binary) 2. Upload the connector extension; 3. Create a connection based on the connector extension; 4. Create one integration with a start connector based on a timer with default configuration and a end connector based on the custom connector. You can also directly import the ZIP which is attached 5. Publish integrations. 6. Have a look at the logging of the application pod in Openshift. 7. In logs we see exception.
