>             Project: Felix
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Web Console
>    Affects Versions: webconsole-3.1.8
>            Reporter: Felix Meschberger
>            Assignee: Felix Meschberger
>             Fix For: webconsole-4.0.0
>
>
> If the web console bundle gets restarted while a bundle is being updated in the BaseUpdateInstallerHelper thread and an exception happens during the update, the log message cannot be written causing a NullPointerException. This factually hides the actual problem.
> The fix is to catch any exception when trying to log the message and just write the error to std err to at least get some indication of problems.
> One such potential situation is failing to update the web console bundle itself (e.g. due to missing dependencies)
