Some times when asking jmeter to stop a running thread group a null pointer exception is thrown and the window saying "Stopping Threads" remains displayed. The exception is: Exception in thread "Thread-357" java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.jmeter.engine.StandardJMeterEngine.tellThreadsToStop(StandardJMeterEngine.java:542) at org.apache.jmeter.engine.StandardJMeterEngine.access$700(StandardJMeterEngine.java:57) at org.apache.jmeter.engine.StandardJMeterEngine$StopTest.run(StandardJMeterEngine.java:357) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) It seams a null check on the Thread object retreived should be done in this method: private void tellThreadsToStop() { synchronized (allThreads) { // Protect iterator Iterator<JMeterThread> iter = new HashSet<JMeterThread>(allThreads.keySet()).iterator(); while (iter.hasNext()) { JMeterThread item = iter.next(); item.stop(); // set stop flag item.interrupt(); // interrupt sampler if possible Thread t = allThreads.get(item); t.interrupt(); // also interrupt JVM thread // <-- Line 542 } } } Regards, Stephane
