Dashboard2: chart service null pointer issue

I don't think there is an official bug. There were about ~30 similar
errors in the production logs.

The bug would not have been noticed if we weren't looking at the logs
this morning. Basically it seems that some charts were not being updated.

The exceptions were of this variety:

05:18:49,110 ERROR [PlotPointDateComparator] Invalid Date values for
