This happens in dbxtool when Debug->DebugExecutable is issued.
Basically makes dbxtool be DOA.

java.lang.NullPointerException

Comment 1 Thomas Preisler 2009-09-21 19:18:17 UTC 
MakeConfiguration was called with a base dir that is a valid directory but doesn't contain a project. The MakeConfiguration used in this case is 'hand crafted' 
in dbxgui and it not clear whether base dir is correct and project just hasn't been created yet or base dir is  incorrect. In any case, I added an extra null check 
in MakeConfiguration.fixupMasterLinks.

This fix helps.
dbxtool is now much more on it's feet.
