Description kconner 2013-12-10 18:11:20 UTC

Both Keith and Len have seen the following when trying to use the ER7 installer

Myself, Alan and Kurt have managed to install it successfully.

MD5 (jboss-fsw-installer-6.0.0.ER7-redhat-1.jar) = 9a2b77a0bf5175fd9844e1e92da9dbd2

Initial investigation seems to suggest an environmental issue

Comment 1 Thomas Hauser 2013-12-10 19:10:25 UTC

This NPE results from the jboss.server.data.dir query to the server not being answered in previous steps. Thus, it is null, and a call to setProperty() with a null value results in this NPE.

Comment 2 Thomas Hauser 2013-12-12 15:54:54 UTC

Fixed in ER7-2.

Comment 3 Len DiMaggio 2013-12-16 19:28:33 UTC

Verified in ER7-2
