Ok, reproduced. What's going on is that the base layer refers to the layer with the old name, and this makes saving the layer groups fail.
We could do two things:

  • make that less fatal, and have the server log about the problem and just remove the layer from the group
  • eventually, make the feature type editor page look for usages of this layer in groups, and rename accordingly (hard to make this properly since aliasing is usually use to avoid having two layers with the same name, and the other one might be involved in layer groups as well...)

Closing this in a way that avoids the NPE, but the renamed layer will be removed from the groups. Fact is, the groups refers layers by name and there is no good way in the current UI to get the before and after names of the layer, so it's hard to perform the renames
