Hi,

I just got an NPE while starting up HornetQ 2.2.2 (r10449; see http://community.jboss.org/thread/164768), HornetQ didn't came up properly afterwards, I had to delete the journaling files to bring it up. Could you please have a look?

It might be that some files are corrupt as the disk ran full recently (the disk usage was back to 50% when the error above as thrown). There were no recent configuration changes (configuration attached). I've a copy of the data files, so if there is anything I could check there for you please let me know.

Best regards,

Ronny
