You'll need to read more of the log to see what the root error was. A "null ointer exception" is a fallback message in Java - it's what you get when a null object is accessed and there's no error handling for the fault.
There will be many more lines of logs, similar to that NPE line, and one of them will refer to the class doing the bad thing, which is then what you can plumb into google...
