shinsato commented on JENKINS-12577: ------------------------------------ The fix for 13317 prevented null values for default subject and body fields which I thought might be related - but it isn't. The line of code that is causing a NullPointerException is return line in Slave: public Launcher createLauncher(TaskListener listener) { SlaveComputer c = getComputer(); return new RemoteLauncher(listener, c.getChannel(), c.isUnix()).decorateFor(this); } The only thing that could cause a NPE are the dereferences of c, which is the computer. Something has gotten pretty broken in the configuration for Slave.getComputer() to return null. I'd agree I doubt this is the email-ext plugin. > Email notification hangs due to NullPointerException > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JENKINS-12577 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-12577 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: Bug > Components: email-ext > Affects Versions: current > Environment: Windows 2008 Server x64, Java 1.6.0_25 > Reporter: Costin Caraivan > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: template.jelly > > > We have an email notification which uses a Jelly template.
