            I could not reproduce the problem.
            I tested Jenkins1.534, Flexible Publish 0.12, IE10 and Firefox 24.0 on Windows7 64bits.

            It seems that configurations are not properly stored for the forms your browser sends are broken.
            Would you tell me what browser you use?

            As a workaround, you can restart Jenkins and the incomplete configurations will be automatically fixed.
            But reconfiguring jobs will break configurations again, I suppose.

            I failed to reproduce the problem even with chrome 30.0, Mac OSX 10.6.8...
            I want to see the smallest configuration to reproduce the problem in your
            environment.

            Would you try a followings?

            1. Create a new job with "Build a free-style software project"
            2. Add a build step "Execute shell" and run "touch test.txt"
            3. Add a post-build action "Flexible publish" and configure as followings:
              • Run?: Always (default)
              • Action: Archive the artifacts
              • Files to archive: test.txt
              • (No need to expand "Advanced" menus)
            4. Save the configuration, and run a build. Please see the problem occurs.
            5. Put the configuration XML file here. You can get it at ${JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/(job name)/config.xml. JENKINS_HOME is shown in "Home directory" in Manage Jenkins > Configure System.

            Re-opening issue I have encountered this issue.

            Steps to reproduce:
            1. Create a new freestyle project
            2. Add the Flexible publish as a post build action.
            3. Save the project without any conditional publishers.
            4. It will throw an exception, however the save happens!
            5. Execute a build and it will throw the NPE.

            Another way you can get this NPE:
            1. Same steps as 1, 2, 3, 4.
            2. Restarting Jenkins throws this NPE, however the project will fail to load and show an error about project actions.
            c3eb1c protects against errors coming from jobs failing to load properly.

            I created PR 7 to fix this issue.

            Thanks for the report.
            That looks an issue introduced in 0.13, and generates another stracktrace reported in this issue.
            I created another issue in JENKINS-26452.
