I tried to download (only) API support extension from NetBeans update centre. First time the download failed and on next page it showed unchecked API support with comment "Bad download". I went back to module section and selected API support again and started download. Progress of download came to the end and then I pressed Next. I saw again the same page with "Bad download". I clicked on checkbox to select the "bad download" API support module to install and Null Pointer Exception was thrown. Copy of NPE will be added as attachment.
Created attachment 1347 [details] Copy of NPE thrown by autoupdate
Fixed in main trunk.
There is one similar situation: 1) The errors encountered are download errors. Here is the message: Download of modules <module name> fails. Try to download this module again? 2) If you say No or Cancel, Next button will be enabled. 3) Click Next 4) NPE (the same as is already attached) appears when trying to check signing the non-existent modules.
