When the Compensation Service is not enabled on the WebSphere
Application Server,  the server does not create a new instance
for it. This means that a later check on whether the instance
is started results in a NullPointerException.

A Null check has been added to prevent the
NullPointerException. The correct
XAResourceNotAvailableException is then thrown and the error
is logged.
