Comment

you're encountering a NullPointerException in an AWT event queue thread. This error message indicates that the variable "location" is null, and therefore it cannot be used to invoke the toExternalForm() method of the Java URL class.

Without seeing more code or context, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of the error. However, some possible reasons for this exception include:

* location being null when it's not expected to be
* incorrect initialization or assignment of the location variable
* Thread safety issues, where the location variable is being modified or accessed concurrently by multiple threads

To troubleshoot this, you may want to:

* Check the code that sets or uses the location variable to ensure it's properly initialized and not null
* Verify that the code is thread-safe and that location is not being modified unexpectedly
* Add logging or debugging statements to understand the flow of execution and variable values leading up to the exception
