Error installing solution: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

I'm trying to install a solution on a Dynamics 365 (v8.2) Org. After I select my zip file and press "Next" on the wizard, the following error appears after some time:

object_5F00_reference.png

"0x80044150 - Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Extra info:

- This happens when processing a new entity I created;

- A previous import attempt failed on XSD validation, indicating a ObjectTypeCode tag was missing on my new entity;

- I added the tag and a 10223 ObjectTypeCode value (just picked a random number higher than 10000) to my customizations.xml file and tried to import my solution again.

Now some questions:

1) Can I get more information about the error? My new entity has hundreds of lines in XML and I'm not sure which object it's referring to.

2) Is this the right way to set a new ObjectTypeCode for a new entity?

Any thoughts would be very appreciated, thanks.
