When running a deployed addin: "System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null" #88

Closed earp123 closed 5 years ago

Having this error on every script I've tried to deploy, including simple one-line script to test with.

Revit 2018.3.1.2 Windows 7

The addin seems to be assembled and installed correctly (with an exe made with Inno Setup), I can see the push button in the Add Ins Ribbon panel, the error shows up when I click on it.

I'm using the deployment process as instructed by this post:

Please help!

Caused by a bug in the Addin Manifest file selected with 'DeployRPSAddin' function. Essentially the manifest was pointing to nothing, so the dll assembled an empty script.
