Unexpected Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException

Hi, in the server log file we get that error quite often and I would like your opinion on that:

[ WARNING ] > Unexpected Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
at it.gotoandplay.smartfoxserver.controllers.SystemHandler.processEvent(SystemHandler.java:274)
at it.gotoandplay.smartfoxserver.controllers.SystemHandler.run(SystemHandler.java:112)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

SmartFox Server 1.4 PRO

Thanks

It's probably caused by the fact the the socket object is null, so the user doesn't exist anymore when the code is executed.
It's questionable if this exception should be thrown.

Question: did you disable one or more default "actions" of the default handler? The error seems to be originated from there.

Actually, the createRoom is disable for each zone. It's the only one.

Great, I expected something like that. Then the error is nothing too important. I am adding this to our todo-list as a fix for the next release
