I'm trying to do some testing with Google Cloud Directory Sync and Active Directory, but whatever I do, I always get nullpointer exeptions. As far as I can find GCDS is a Java application. The GCDS installer installs a version of the Java run-time environment in a sub-folder so it shouldn't be a issue that the wrong version of java is installed or something like that?
When I try to open a configfile:
All my checks are OK:
But when I try to simulate a sync, I also get nullpointer exceptions:

I'm obviously missing something here, but I have no clue what... The Active Directory is a Windows 2016 and there are no more logfiles than the ones I already found which I copied above.
