Random "Object Reference not set to an instance of an object"
We are getting random "Object Reference not set to an instance of an object" errors when attempting to login to the umbraco admin. This seems to be fixed when the web.config file is updated (clearing cache I suppose). We are unsure what could be causing this? The only thing I think of is we have a number of python macros installed but I am not sure why this would effect anything since they are called on the front end? Does anyone ever see this error themselves, and have they come up with a solution? (Some of it might be garbled because I ocr'd a screenshot and tried to clean it up - but error is below)
System.NuIlRefetenceException Object Reference not set to an instance of an object
[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]
[TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'umbraco.gusinessLogic.Actions.Action' threw an exception.] umbraco.cms.presentation_umbraco.RenderActionJS() +80
It's not a great deal of help I know, but I just googled it and found a codeplex issue for this error message, you might want to add a vote for it and also see if you can trap any more debugging info to help solve it as mentioned by Niels on that issue.

Hi Dennis,
It's not a great deal of help I know, but I just googled it and found a codeplex issue for this error message, you might want to add a vote for it and also see if you can trap any more debugging info to help solve it as mentioned by Niels on that issue.

Hi Dennis,
I also found someone else with the same issue on another post, you might like to try contacting him to see if he has found a solution:

Sorry I am unable to help you directly, it looks like an un-solved bug currently.
Cheers,
