             Summary: Perforce plugin throws null pointer exception upon 
encountering deleted user
                 Key: JENKINS-13271
                 URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13271
             Project: Jenkins
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: perforce
    Affects Versions: current
         Environment: Jenkins 1.457
P4 Plugin 1.3.11
            Reporter: S Stack
            Assignee: Rob Petti
            Priority: Blocker


P4 plugin throws a null pointer exception causing job failure when running a 
"p4 -s users <deleted-user>" where <deleted-user> is a once active, now deleted 
account. The only workaround appears to be to recreate the deleted account 
which consumes a Perforce license. I have verified this workaround twice with 
two different deleted accounts.

Example failure output:

And of course the job fails at this point.

Note that "p4 -s users deleted-user" 
returns
error: deleted-user - no such user(s).
exit: 0

while "p4 -s users valid-user"
returns
info: valid-user <valid-u...@my.company.com> (Valid User) accessed 2012/03/29
exit: 0
