I am trying to upgrade from CE 6.1.1 GA2 to CE 6.2 GA1.

The upgrade procedure stops with NPE in com.liferay.portal.upgrade.v6_2_0.UpgradeDynamicDataMapping at row 203. The reason is that in StringUtil.toUpperCase(templateKey.trim()) the templateKey is NULL.

To reproduce this bug you need to have a row in DDMTemplate where the templateKey is set to Null.

When I removed the problem template row from DDMTemplate table the upgrade procedure passed this step.
