AEM Eclipse Plugin - Unable to save while debugging

[Tyler_Maynard]

I have been using the AEM eclipse plugin. It speeds things up quite a bit, but I seem to be having an issue.

When I start my server in eclipse it is syncing the folder structure as expected.

When I debug my server, i can place breakpoints and get eclipse to stop and load the states of the app just fine.

The problem is when I am in debug mode and I attempt to save it tries to sync the files but I get this:

Could not publish to the server.
java.lang.NullPointerException

Any insight would be greatful. Thanks!

Also - you can use Eclipse and Vault to sync the code with AEM - without using plug-ins. See:
