> Key: STORM-260
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-260
> Project: Apache Storm (Incubating)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.9.2-incubating
> Reporter: Adrian Petrescu
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: patch, test
> Attachments: patch_commit_ae6a0eaf21e1.patch
>
>
> Some of my test runs were occasionally failing with a NullPointerException on
> [backtype.storm.utils.Time.java:64|https://github.com/apache/incubator-storm/blob/master/storm-core/src/jvm/backtype/storm/utils/Time.java#L64].
> After a bit of investigation, it seems there's a race condition here; if we
> disable simulating mode while a thread is currently sleeping, then when it
> wakes up it won't re-check if it's still in "simulating" mode, it'll try to
> remove the sleep time, and get the NPE.
> The attached patch is a fairly straightforward fix.
