Good day
I am using VS 2008
I am getting fed up with this error. I have search all over the web and tried every possible suggestion to this error I could find.
1. delete app_code, build, add files back, publish. (did not work)
2. delete temporary asp.net files (did not work)
in the end I even tried the command line and get the following stacktrace.
error ASPRUNTIME: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
[NullReferenceException]: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I used the following command line:
aspnet_compiler.exe -p d:\code\websites\brokerweb -v / d:\code\websites\published -f -c -errorstack -u
Please help as I cannot publish this site at all at present and it worked fine for quite a long time now before this stupid error.
