Help!!
Everything was working before. Until I tried the Multistep form again. 
I tried creating a new portal but when I create a new multistepform same error appears.

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]

    Hi @aofosu, 
     
    I was saving Contact lookup as login contact id in metadata, which I have now removed to see is it a meta data issue. But still same issue. FYI to check security issue I have allocated this user admin role, but still same issue.

    I experienced this when I was trying to Associate Current Portal User on Insert on a step form that was in insert mode as first step:
     
    Solution: I used a metadata to set the value on save.

    Hi @tin007 , @inanoffice23, @Fubar,

     
    Are you able to get the solution for this? I am also getting same kind of error on Multistep form On Save. Not able to get what is the issue. Looks like I am trying to set contact guid in meta data as login person , but some issue there. I have given admin role to contact but still same error.

    I am having this error too, did you manage to fix it @tin007 

     

    I have upgraded the other packages and still the same error

     

    I am indeed having a look up column to the main table (associated table reference was used too), which had an auto number and it works fine in another website

     

    We created a new site to have the 'enhanced' data model, but lots of bugs are appearing and the website takes a long time to load

     

    It created its own Portal Management

     

    I added the website to the Portal Management where the other 3 sites were placed, but it looks like there are 2 Portal Managements for the site

     

    The 'separate' portal management also has triplicated Web files and many other settings, is there an easy way to merge both Portal Managements or do I have to raise a ticket with Microsoft?

    Most likely you have a Lookup field that is being populated with a value that is not valid (most likely via JavaScript/JQuery, or form Metadata)

    If it is a bug, double check that you have the latest Power Pages Core installed (from the Admin portal, in the environment in question , Resources->Power Pages and then check for updates)
