I'm following the instructions at
http://help.eclipse.org/ganymede/topic/org.eclipse.pde.doc.u ser/tasks/pde_product_build.htm
to build an set up an automated build for an RCP application. The build
doesn't get far, but terminates with a NullPointerException:

Any idea what could be going wrong here?

That's it!
Bad:
baseLocation="C:/Program Files/Eclipse"
Good:
baseLocation=C:/Program Files/Eclipse

This is probably a problem with the "baseLocation" property.
Make sure the directory it points to exists. If you don't have a
baseLocation, either don't define the property, or leave it blank.
