Re: Null Pointer Exception from Linux Debian version

Strange Observations
1- Shortly after trying SH3D and getting the above problem, I ran out of disk space.
After investigation (du -hsx /var/log | sort -rh | head -10), I found out that syslog had
swelled to 62G. I had to purge syslog to avoid formatting. This has not occurred since.
2- A similar problem occurred before (
https://sourceforge.net/p/sweethome3d/bugs/346/)
caused by lack of disk space and caused a Null pointer exception.
3- Another case was confirmed using the Pan view plugin and SH3d would not start
(

Some kind of race condition? (I just googled the error you are getting)....
4-./SweetHome3D-Java3D-1_5_2 &> ~/SH3D_jre1.8.0_481.txt does not redirect standard error
to the file but to the screen.
5- Retried the original tests from a fresh install with default runtime and then
with jre1.8.0_481 and got the same error condition.
