Description Jaromir Uhrik 2001-06-28 14:39:03 UTC
When attempting to access the update center for the first time an 
exception is thrown in the setter methods.  The second time the update 
center is accessed no exception is thrown. This happens on both Solaris 
and NT.

The log contains the following:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
