panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference

• CentOS 6.5
• Telegraf v1.2.1 (git: release-1.2 3b6ffb344e5c03c1595d862282a6823ecb438cff)
• Influxdb version: 1.2.0
• Kapacitor version 1.2.0, branch master, commit 5408057

I am having a problem when trying to start kapacitor, start/restart commands fail.
service kapacitor start says it has started [OK] , but service kapacitor status says [FAILED]

When checking /var/log/kapacitor/kapacitor.err , I get the following error:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x20 pc=0x51c319]

$kapacitord runs fine and starts kapactiro. But I prefer to use service start kapacitor

I understand that similar issues have been raised and fixed before ( like here: #1087).

Is the fix included in the version I am running or I should build the binaries myself?

Thanks
