Error when saving Asset

Hello,
I'm getting an error when I save an Asset using RAM 7.2. Below is the call stack. Does anyone know what's happening?
Note that the asset is saved despite that error.
Thanks

What version of RAM 7.2 are you using 7.2.0.0, 7.2.0.1 or 7.2.0.2 (of course we would recommend that you step up to 7.2.0.2 if that is not what you are using). I need to know so I can match the stack up with code.

Thanks for the reply - I'm using the latest 7.2.0.2

It looks like we are not able to find and existing life cycle for this asset when you save it (does that make sense would you have expected this asset to be within a lifecycle when you made the update)?

We were expecting a different exception when this occurred so we are printing the NPE to the console and moving forward with the update.

If this asset was not in a lifecycle this is a benign exception, if you were you would loose the history of this asset when this occurs.

Thanks for the update. I'm not using the lifecycle, simply saving an asset within a comunity with type and category.
