Dynamics CRM plugin failure on Create of contact

Any help would be appreciated. This simple plugin shows no errors and registers fine but fails when a contact is created.

It should simply create a follow-up task after contact is created.

Here is the error: Generic.

Exception Message: An error occurred in MyPlug-in.

Here is the code

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk;
using System.ServiceModel;

namespace TaskCreate
{
public class TaskCreate : IPlugin
{

public void Execute(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
{

ITracingService tracingService =
(ITracingService)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(ITracingService));

IPluginExecutionContext context = (IPluginExecutionContext)
serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IPluginExecutionContext));

IOrganizationServiceFactory serviceFactory =
(IOrganizationServiceFactory)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IOrganizationServiceFactory));
IOrganizationService service = serviceFactory.CreateOrganizationService(context.UserId);

if (context.InputParameters.Contains("Target") &&
context.InputParameters["Target"] is Entity)
{

Entity contact = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];

try
{

// Plug-in business logic
//When user creates a contact, a task must be created automatically by the system. The task should be completed within 2 days.

//this is an object not a new record - it is ready for the service.create to use this in memory object
Entity taskRecord = new Entity("task");

//this sets the single lines of text in the task
taskRecord.Attributes.Add("subject", "Follow up");

//date attribute populated in the task and set for 2 days later
taskRecord.Attributes.Add("scheduledend", DateTime.Now.AddDays(2));

//Set option set value attribute sets status
taskRecord.Attributes.Add("priority", new OptionSetValue(2));

//Set the Parent record attribute lookup regarding attribute on the task to ilnk it to parent contact
taskRecord.Attributes.Add("regardingobjectid", new EntityReference("contact", contact.Id ));

Guid taskGuid = service.Create(taskRecord);

}

catch (FaultException<OrganizationServiceFault> ex)
{
throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("An error occurred in MyPlug-in.", ex);
}

catch (Exception ex)
{
tracingService.Trace("MyPlugin: {0}", ex.ToString());
throw;
}
}
}
}
}

The code is signed and built. The plugin registration tool is used:
Create
Contact
PostOperation

I would love to use the profiler to debug, but there is an error there, too, when I try to install it. You may think there is a link, but other plugins have registered fine and work and the issue is not with registering, it is at the point of a contact being created in CRM.
