Unable to startup the server: NPE while loading configurations from database

Issue

• The issue usually comes with Oracle database and having a null dictionary in the table Configuration_ for the configurationid org_apache_felix_cm_impl_DynamicBindings
• Due to this, Liferay fails to start, and throws the following exception:
  

  [exec] 15-Oct-2018 19:27:17.685 SEVERE [main] org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.listenerStart Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class [com.liferay.portal.spring.context.PortalContextLoaderListener]
