Description Joe Toomey CLA 2007-08-15 09:17:53 EDT 
I see this error sometimes when using ASF services -- the AdminPlugin.stop() nulls out the plugin variable before calling AutoStartStop.stopIAC().  There are a couple of error handlers in that method that call AdminPlugin.getDefault(), which returns the plugin variable (which we just set to null), and they dereference the return result.

I moved the plugin = null assignment after the call to stopIAC().

Fixed in 4.4.1
Comment 2 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2009-06-30 12:08:28 EDT 
As of TPTP 4.6.0, TPTP is in maintenance mode and focusing on improving quality by resolving relevant enhancements/defects and increasing test coverage through test creation, automation, Build Verification Tests (BVTs), and expanded run-time execution. As part of the TPTP Bugzilla housecleaning process (see http://wiki.eclipse.org/Bugzilla_Housecleaning_Processes), this enhancement/defect is verified/closed by the Project Lead since this enhancement/defect has been resolved and unverified for more than 1 year and considered to be fixed. If this enhancement/defect is still unresolved and reproducible in the latest TPTP release (http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/), please re-open.
