[Building Sakai] issue with externalAssessmentService

[Steve Swinsburg]

Updating this, the startup error was an old one and is a red herring. The
NPE remains though. Does anyone who worked on the external assignments work
know why this might be null when run from a quartz job? It just looks like
a normal bean injection.

Thanks,
Steve
