Running into the same issue with the GWC Distributed plugin in 2.9. Installing WPS did not help.

Thank you! The Python plugin is no longer causing this error. It seems as you suggested that the WPS extension is a requirement.

Yes, I experienced this exact issue with the Python plugin. However, once I also installed the WPS extension (http://ares.boundlessgeo.com/geoserver/2.8.x/ext-latest/geoserver-2.8-SNAPSHOT-wps-plugin.zip), the issues with getting the Python plugin to work went away.

This issue is about the community Python plugin, not the WPS plugin. I can confirm that this issue still exists with the 14-Jan-2016 nightly build of 2.8.1. Specifically I still have the error using

GeoServer fails to start after following the instructions for installing the script extension located at http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/community/scripting/installation.html.
In the log there is "WARN [support.DisposableBeanAdapter] - Invocation of destroy method failed on bean with name 'geoServerLoader': java.lang.NullPointerException" followed by " ERROR [context.ContextLoader] - Context initialization failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException"
This does not appear to be version specific. I can confirm that I have the problem with using http://ares.boundlessgeo.com/geoserver/2.7.x/community-2015-08-25/geoserver-2.7-SNAPSHOT-python-plugin.zip with
