As of 18 november the Chebi ontology has been updated to a new version. Unfortunately Ontocat now breaks with an error message that the webservice signature has changed. Tried updating to the latest Ontocat, but that does not help. Probably either the webservice is wrong, or there is a bug in Ontocat. Added an if != null statement to the logic so this failing application bootstrapping will not break the whole application.
