ScriptRunner causing NPE when deleting ticket

[Caitlin Mohnike]

Background:

We have a script that copies labels from the parent and applies them to the sub-tasks. This is run on a workflow upon issue creation. 

Problem:

We are getting NPEs on certain actions even on tickets outside of that specific workflow. e.g. - when I try to delete a ticket in a different project/workflow (not using any scripts from script runner), I get the error below. This is what I got back from atlassian support. 

Looks like the first error that was reported on the beginning of this issue is no longer present on the logs. However, I've noticed that there's still a similar NPE happening:

014-11-07 07:22:26,435 http-bio-80-exec-902 ERROR matthew.brand 442x702407x1 e8sgtb 68.106.214.230 /secure/QuickCreateIssue.jspa [scriptrunner.jira.workflow.ScriptWorkflowFunction] Script function failed on issue: SOC-154, actionId: 1, file: <inline script>

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke method getLabels() on null object

        at Script6.run(Script6.groovy:18)

This is related to the Script Runner Add-On. It looks like it's some script called during a workflow transition that is hitting into a java.lang.NullPointerException. I'd recommend you to disable the add-on or edit the workflows that are using it and remove the script. If that's not possible, then I recommend you to reach the Add-On vendor to help you fix the problem. You can find it's contact details at https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.onresolve.jira.groovy.groovyrunner/versions

Error I get when deleting:
