Description Ladislav Thon 2013-08-23 13:21:22 UTC 
During EAP 6.1.1.ER7 testing, I've seen several occurences of this NPE:

11:53:25,992 ERROR [org.jgroups.protocols.UDP] (OOB-19,shared=udp) failed handling incoming message: java.lang.NullPointerException

In the log, this NPE is surrounded by exceptions from bug 923818, but this totally looks like a problem in JGroups.

See: https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/job/eap-6x-failover-ejb-ejbservlet-shutdown-dist-async/15/console-perf20/ (so that's graceful shutdown, DIST/ASYNC).
Comment 1 Radoslav Husar 2013-08-27 14:19:08 UTC 
Upstream Jira: 
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1684
Comment 2 Radoslav Husar 2013-09-03 13:12:49 UTC 
Can you guys provide more information about the NPE? What are the circumstances, whether you have seen it in other jobs, etc. I wonder if this couldn't have been another instance messing up with the test cluster.

I am setting also severity/priority.
Comment 3 Ladislav Thon 2013-09-03 13:31:21 UTC 
Only seen this in a single job. Other than that, we have no additional information besides what can be seen from the logs.
Comment 7 Paul Ferraro 2013-10-16 12:54:28 UTC 
This is no longer addressable in the time remaining for release.
Comment 9 Richard Janík 2013-12-09 10:00:06 UTC 
Just an update: present in EAP 6.2.0.
Comment 10 Radoslav Husar 2013-12-09 11:45:00 UTC 
Please add a link to the job where it was seen, need to look again at what was the exact timing of the issue.
Comment 11 Richard Janík 2013-12-09 12:17:40 UTC 
Logs from 6.2.0.CR3 are here (both from the same test):

https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/job/eap-6x-failover-ejb-ejbservlet-undeploy-dist-sync/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/report/config/jboss-perf21/server.log

https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/job/eap-6x-failover-ejb-ejbservlet-undeploy-dist-sync/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/report/config/jboss-perf19/server.log

and the build (with all the logs) is here:
