Helios Annoyance: Internal error occurred during: "Cache refresh" - NullPointerException


I am not sure what started this problem. I submitted it as a bug to Eclipse but they closed it, stating it is a JBoss extension problem. However, this problem doesn't occur in my other workspace (both utilize the JBoss tools).

It occurs every time I hit Ctrl+Shift+T to open a new type. It only reports the "Cache Refresh" error. Then when I type in a search string and hit OK, it pops up both the "Cache Refresh" error and a "Items filtering" error. Both of these report NPEs.

I inspected the logs but don't see anything jboss-specific in the stacks.

Cache refresh:

Solution

  • I had to reinstall Helios (SR2) to make these errors go away.
