[jboss-user] [Clustering/JBoss] - NullPointerException When Re-joining a Cluster

I'm running JBossAS 4.2.0GA and using the farm-service. I have clustered two app. servers and the farming is working for the most part, but I get a NPE when the following sequence happens: 1) Kill one of the servers manually (server A). 2) Manually remove all archives in the farm/ dir of server A. 3) Restart server A 4) server A pulls deployments 5) server A attempts to deploy, gets NPE Here's a partial stack trace from the log: anonymous wrote : 2007-08-08 14:50:33,372 INFO [org.jboss.ejb3.EJBContainer] STOPPED EJB: cluster1.bean.HelloWorldBean ejbName: HelloWorldBean | 2007-08-08 14:50:33,387 DEBUG [org.jboss.ejb3.stateless.StatelessDelegateWrapper] Starting failed jboss.j2ee:ear=Cluster1.ear,jar=ejb.jar,name=HelloWorldBean,service=EJB3 | | java.lang.NullPointerException | at org.jboss.ejb.txtimer.DatabasePersistencePolicy.listTimerHandles(DatabasePersistencePolicy.java:165) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) | at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) | at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) | at org.jboss.mx.interceptor.ReflectedDispatcher.invoke(ReflectedDispatcher.java:155) | at org.jboss.mx.server.Invocation.dispatch(Invocation.java:94) | at org.jboss.mx.server.Invocation.invoke(Invocation.java:86) | at org.jboss.mx.server.AbstractMBeanInvoker.invoke(AbstractMBeanInvoker.java:264) | at org.jboss.mx.server.MBeanServerImpl.invoke(MBeanServerImpl.java:659) | at org.jboss.mx.util.MBeanProxyExt.invoke(MBeanProxyExt.java:210) | at $Proxy30.listTimerHandles(Unknown Source) Any idea what's causing this?
