Object reference not set to an instance of an object

  • 1.  Object reference not set to an instance of an object

    Posted 15 days ago

    Hi,

    I´m getting sometimes the following error message even withtout loading any macro, and I am not able to replicate it as it happens sometimes and under different circumstances:

    Exception Count:       2
    Exception Source:      Trimble.Sdk
    Exception Type:        System.NullReferenceException
    Exception Message:     Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    Exception Target Site: 脺

    Does anyone know why it can happen and how to fix it? or is it a TBC issue for some reason?

    Thanks a lot.

    Regards,

    Fernando

    I've been seeing it since 5.40 ~2020. Still happens in 5.90. Always with chinese character as "target site".

    Hi Marian,

    thanks for your feedback. Yes, I have also seen it for a while now on different versions, but not sure since when.

    Also still happening with TBac v2023 and 2024.

    Can anyone from the TBC development team help please?

    Thanks

    Fernando

    Hi Fernando, 

    We cannot reproduce this issue locally.

    Please attach the steps to reproduce and the team can take a look and see where the issue is coming from. 

    Thanks!

    Hi Bryce,

    thanks a lot for your reply and sorry for my late answer, as there were 2 days bank holidays last week.

    The issue is that it´s not easy to reproduce. It happens sometimes, independently on the function you are launching even without using any macro but internal TBC functions. In the most of the cases, the only way to keep working on TBC is restarting it.

    I thought it would be known on the TBC development side, as it has been happening for a few years now and I heard it also from customers and partners worldwide.

    If I´m able to replicate it with a fix combination of steps or similar, I´ll let you know.

    Thanks.

    Regards,

    Fernando

    Hi Fernando,

    Are you able to share the specific TDX file that caused an issue for you? Importing a TDX file into a new project did not cause an error on our side.

    Thank you!

    Hi Virginia,

    thanks for your answer and efforts !

    Sure, I could do it, however the linked TZF files are many and the whole data are around 6 GB and it happend after I got the error message in another project, and I created a new empty project using the Buildings template (attached) and after that, I drag&dropped the TDX file and I got the error.

    As once you get the mentioned error, the only way to get rid of it is restarting TBC, after a restart, I could import the TDX file without any error message, so unfortunately, you would not be able to replicate the error by importing my TDX file as it does not depend on the TDX file but on some other internal thing or combination of things inside TBC, that are difficult to replicate, and I fully ackowledge that it is extremely difficult on your side, if you are not able to replicate it.

    As Marian Plucinski also reported, it happens on a daily basis and the only possible way to find out why on your side, could be via the full error messages that some of us provide.

    Thanks a lot.

    Regards,

    Fernando
