> test1.jar is part of watched dir /tmp/autodeploy-bundles/. I accidentally uninstalled test1.jar bundle using the Shell command. Next time, when I actually removed the file from the directory, fileinstall failed with the following NPE:
> Jun 7, 2009 11:23:52 PM  
> INFO: Failed to uninstall bundle: /tmp/autodeploy-bundles/test1.jar: java.lang.NullPointerException
> Jun 7, 2009 11:23:52 PM  
> INFO: java.lang.NullPointerException

> I think it is OK to get the NPE, as user is expected to uninstall the bundle by removing the file unlike what I did in this case. But I am not sure. So, I am filing this bug to share my experience. The fix is pretty simple; we need to log the fact that the bundle has been uninstalled by some other means and add a null check in the code.
