>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-6823
>             Project: Felix
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: HTTP Service
>            Reporter: Francesco Mari
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: http.jetty12-1.1.10, http.base-5.1.18, http.jetty-5.2.2

>
> A _NullPointerException_ in {{WhiteboardManager.deactivate()}} during a configuration-triggered Jetty restart aborts the shutdown sequence. Because {{stopJetty()}} and {{updated()}} have no exception handling, {{startJetty()}} is never called — the server keeps running with a corrupted {{WhiteboardManager}}, all subsequent servlet registrations fail with {{IndexOutOfBoundsException}}, and the system is permanently unusable until the JVM is restarted.
