Solved:

We had a macro with a parameter of type mediaCurrent.

In the XSLT the macro referenced the parameter as /macro/imageID/*/@id

If imageID was empty this threw an errow for some reason (never has done before).

Solution was to change the parameter type to number and just pass through the id in the macro: /macro/imageID

Dan, I know you came up with a workaround, but instead of creating a new post with the same issue I figured I just tag along here.

So I have the same issue and here's my problem.

I have a macro where, among other things, a user selects an image (it's the only reason to choose the macro) and can optionally choose another image as a target. Both are mediaCurrent parameters where one could be empty. When both parameters have a value it's not an issue but when one is blank IIS throws the OP's error.

Not sure how to get around this. Is it possible to set a default value for a parameter to bypass the error? Or is there another way to have a user select a media node?

I don't know I'm afraid as my Macro wasn't being used in the content editor so worked fine with just a number.

My only suggestion would be to convert the macro to Razor maybe?

Thanks Dave, I may give that a try.
