Hello,

when i try to edit any of my macros, i get the following exception:

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]
   Umbraco.Web.UI.Umbraco.Developer.Macros.EditMacro.PopulatePartialViewFiles() +675
   Umbraco.Web.UI.Umbraco.Developer.Macros.EditMacro.OnLoad(EventArgs e) +45
   System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() +54
   System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) +772

I've downloaded the latest nightly build binaries and replaced them with the ones i had - no change.

What can be causing this?

Thanks!

Just some thoughts - do you have the following folders created?

/Views/MacroPartials
/App_Plugins/

Thanks for your reply.

I downloaded EditMacro from the online source code and replaced it with mine.

This fixed the problem :)

Can you explain what you mean by downloaded EditMacro? I have the same issue on an upgraded site. I have all the correct folders.

I'm guessing it was /umbraco/developer/macros/editmacro.aspx, but not quite sure :)

Yes, replaced /umbraco/developer/macros/editmacro.aspx - if you've upgraded try to download the source files from the internet and replace them with your current.
