I am installing, configuring and testing a new ST setup in a development box. On publishing of a SmartTarget enabled TBB the publish transaction fails in the "Committing Deployment" phase. The deployer log says there is something wrong in the communication with Fredhopper: unable to persist the fredhopper XML through the webservice
The Fredhopper indexer instance is running and I think the SmartTarget deployment web service is configured correctly. What could be amiss?
The full log:

Update
I think the CD deployer can reach the SmartTarget deployment web service. If I stop the ST deployment service I get a similar error message with a differnet cause. Instead of a java.lang.NullPointerException I get a java.io.FileNotFoundException. The SmartTarget Deployment web service does not log anything while it is in debug level and has full access to the log location and deployment folder.
