Cloned for backporting to 4.2.2+ +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #400129 +++ It is wrong to register context help for a non-plugin project, but the error message could be more descriptive than NPE. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create new General Project. 2. Create new Context Help in that project. 3. Click "Register this context help file" in the top right corner of Context Help Editor. 4. Click Finish. => Error dialog with NPE appears. Similar to bug 273049 comment 3.

I think changes in bundle version in manifest may also require pom update.
(In reply to comment #2) > I think changes in bundle version in manifest may also require pom update. While there shouldn't be any more CBI builds against this maintenance stream, I updated the POMs to remain consistent. New tag is v20130301. Thanks for pointing this out.
