Nicklas,

There was indeed an extra space after one of the column mappings in my
configuration of the BASE raw data importer plugin. Taking it out cured
the NullPointerException error.

Thanks for the terrific job that you all are doing to support BASE!

I thinks there is a bug in the BASE code. It will be fixed in the next
release. See http://base.thep.lu.se/ticket/563

The good news is that I think the bug is triggered by an extra space in
one of the column mappings for the plugin configuration. Can you please
check if there is an extra space after your columns mappings (\Array
Row\, etc.)? If there is, remove it and try again.
