NPE caused by broker cluster manager not initialising

From: <forums_at_java.net>

Hi, I'm seeing a NullPointerException from the message broker. Looking at the
code, TransactionList is calling Globals.getClusterManager but the field
returned has not yet been initialised. Please does anyone know if this is a
misconfiguration or a bug, and what I have to do to get past it? From reading
the doc it seems GlassFish is meant to configure a master-broker cluster
fully automatically.
My setup is two Ubuntu 10.10 VirtualBoxes, ubu1 and ubu2, with domain 'cms'
on ubu1 portbase 5000 running cluster 'cluster'. Nodes 'localhost-cms' and
'ubu2' with instances 'i1' and 'i2' respectively. I can post a log of all the
asadmin commands used to initialise the environment if that would help.

I found mention of a property
"imq.cluster.nowaitForMasterBrokerTimeoutInSeconds" here:
http://blogs.oracle.com/satish/entry/enhancements_to_jms_clustering_in
The web console and asadmin create-jms-host don't seem to support properties
though so I added it to cluster-config in domains/cms/config/domain.xml (see
below). However it didn't seem to help after a domain and cluster restart,
perhaps unsurprisingly since my error seems different to the one Satish is
describing.
[code]
<jms-service addresslist-behavior="priority"
default-jms-host="default_JMS_host" type="EMBEDDED">
    <jms-host port="${JMS_PROVIDER_PORT}" host="localhost"
name="default_JMS_host">
        <property
name="imq.cluster.nowaitForMasterBrokerTimeoutInSeconds"
value="120"></property>
    </jms-host>
</jms-service>
[/code]
