That's the AWT Event Dispatch Thread (EDT). Code involving AWT or Swing should be run on that thread. This is the thread you'll be on when in you main (running in the "main" thread) you typically call java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater.

Look at your stacktrace. At some point you will find some entry which is from your own code. Maybe a null pointer exception or similar. This is where you must look at.
