I fixed this problem by reversing a string constant equals comparison. As a workaround for older versions, please make sure that all <auto-action> tags in your eventconf have state="on" or state="off" XML attributes. If the "state" attribute is missing, this problem will occur. Marking as fixed.

issue with the autoaction.
I performed a fresh installation with debian squeeze 32Bit and 64Bit and even with Ubunto 64Bit tried an example event with autoaction in eventconfiguration.
The Event processing is working fine, but there is no script execution.
Here the Actiond - logfile:
