Strange error on UpdateAccountInfo method

I wonder if anyone could shed any light on a odd error I'm receiving when certain users run the UpdateAccountInfoEx2 method.

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object" at Tessitura.WebAPI.TessituraUser.UpdateAccountInfo() at
Tessitura.WebAPI.Tessitura.UpdateAccountInfoEx2


A quick Google seems to suggest this is a fairly common ASP error, but not being an ASP progarmmer I can't really understand what might be causing it.

It's not having any negetive implications on our overall system, but just curious to know what the problem might be. I can't see any difference between those calls which work and those which don't.

Thanks
Mark

  • Well, if anyone is still wondering what this means, I think I have the answer.  Basically it's saying that a null value is being passed into the method and it's screwing things up.  For my situation, that null value was the Business Title parameter.  I'm now using a null coalesce to change the value to an empty string and then the method is executed without a problem.  Hope this helps.
