Description

Nowadays, if some error of generating a single app report when getting the application list from generic history service, it will throw the exception. Therefore, even if it just 1 out of 100 apps has something wrong, the whole app list is screwed. The worst impact is making the default page (app list) of GHS web UI crash, wile REST API /applicationhistory/apps will also break.
