Felix Kinyua :
I am experimenting with having different FXML files with different controllers. The AddBalances.fxml has fields to input text and then add to the database when the post button is pressed. It is then ideally supposed to refresh the Tableview to reflect the updated list from the database. This is supposed to be done by the sample.refresh() method. Currently, it updates the database but does not reload the data to refresh.
NB the sample.java controller (where I have nested other controllers), can access methods from the nested controllers just fine. i.e the bottomLabelController.checkConnection() and tableViewController.loadFinanceData() work as expected.
NB When I had one FXML file and one controller the TableView refreshed well.
I hope that is enough info.
Here is the error (caused by controller.refresh() in the AddBalancesController.

Abra :
As you wrote in your question...
Here is the error (caused by controller.refresh() in the AddBalancesController.
controller.refresh() is line 65 in file AddBalancesController.java and, according to the stack trace you posted, this line is throwing NullPointerException which means that controller is null.
controller is a member of class AddBalancesController and is annotated with @FXML. Here are the relevant code lines from class AddBalancesController:
@FXML
private Controller controller;
However AddBalances.fxml is a nested FXML of sample.fxml whose "controller" is an instance of class Controller. Here are the relevant excerpts from file sample.fxml:
fx:controller="sample.Controller">
.
.
<fx:include source="AddBalances.fxml" fx:id="addBalances"/>
And indeed addBalances is a member of class Controller...
@FXML
private AddBalancesController addBalancesController;
Looks to me like you think that the FXML loader will also initialize member controller in class AddBalancesController and that is where you are mistaken. In other words, you need to initialize member controller in class AddBalancesController, otherwise the member is null and hence the NullPointerException.
Probably the simplest way to initialize member controller in class AddBalancesController would be to add a method to class AddBalancesController, e.g.
public void setSampleController(Controller controller) {
this.controller = controller;
}
Then in class Controller, call this method - probably in method initialize() of that class, as in:
public void initialize(URL url, ResourceBundle rb){
bottomLabelController.checkConnection();
tableViewController.loadFinanceData();
addBalancesController.setSampleController(this); // I added this line.
}
