It would be great if the installer would tell to the user, that something went wrong. Now the installer seems like everything is installed properly, but the console output (and the "(not)installed" product) says otherwise.
The NPE pops out, when clicking next on the progress page (after the installation is done) and in the installer there is an empty page (bug [#JBDS-1968]).
