I am trying to install the NivoSlider on my Umbraco 6.1.6 fresh clean installation but I am continuously getting the "Error loading MacroEngine script (file: NivoSlider.cshtml)".
From the Log I found the following.
2014-02-25 15:02:34,947 [7] WARN umbraco.macro - [Thread 15] Error loading MacroEngine script (file: NivoSlider.cshtml, Type: ''. Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Or have you seen the documentation for this package (Documentation tab). I this pdf file you will find infomation about how to setup the package with the right document types and properties and what alias the properties should have:
I cannot understand. I saw your comments, i had tried these but i am not getting any stack trace.
Also i followed exactly as the pdf describes to create the MediaType with each properties, the Media files typeof(NivoImageSlider) and the macro into my template file. I am still getting the following error from the log:
2014-02-25 17:37:49,069 [7] WARN umbraco.macro - [Thread 16] Error loading MacroEngine script (file: NivoSlider.cshtml, Type: ''. Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

If this dosen´t help you, or give you any clue, what is wrong I could give you access, to of my dev environment where the nivo slider is working, if you want to see my Umbraco setup, then just drop me an email at denaaen (at) gmail.com.

Hi Thomas,
I have posted some thoughts what you could try to do, to find out why you´re getting the error.

Okay then try to see my comment here: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/nivoslider-for-umbraco/general-forum/47027-Caption-not-displaying?p=0#comment173466 You could try to compare the files you have, with the content of files I have posted in the comment.
If this dosen´t help you, or give you any clue, what is wrong I could give you access, to of my dev environment where the nivo slider is working, if you want to see my Umbraco setup, then just drop me an email at denaaen (at) gmail.com.
