I got the following error when running tasks in MOA (last version from OpenML website).

I tried different tasks and configurations:
openml.OpenmlDataStreamClassification -t 2177 -e openml.OpenmlTaskEvaluator
openml.OpenmlDataStreamClassification -l functions.NoChange -t 2172 -e openml.OpenmlTaskEvaluator

Failure reason: null

    at moa.tasks.TaskThread.run(TaskThread.java:76)

In addition, the console log output looks fine without errors:

[15-02-2015 18:11:27] [OK] [Authenticate] Authentication successfull. 
[15-02-2015 18:11:28] [INFO] [ARFF Cache] Stored dataset dataset_4_labor.arff to cache. 
[15-02-2015 18:11:28] [OK] [Download] Obtained Stream Header. 

However, it works if BasicClassificationPerformanceEvaluator is selected instead.
