    Hi,

    I've run into an issue I haven't seen before (I have lost count of how many times this has happened, really, do you ever strike the same problem twice???) with the following error message:

    [2015-04-28 08:01:46.284] Process: w3wp |Organization:d112c59d-5192-e411-a8b8-00155d0a8302 |Thread:    3 |Category: Platform.Sdk |User: c56194d7-5192-e411-a8b8-00155d0a8302 |Level: Error |ReqId: 43bf9da8-df0f-45dc-8792-89a94517902e | VersionedPluginProxyStepBase.Execute  ilOffset = 0x65

    Has anyone else seen this error? It's a CRM 2013 on premise with SP1UR2.

    That is a strange one.  The 'Value cannot be null' implies that you are doing an update/create and haven't set something that is required.  Have you narrowed down/debugged your plugin to see where it's happening?  Maybe post the code so we can review it?

    It is a strange one, and as you can see it's breaking in stage 30 of retrieve of Account so, not any code I have written...

    I just experienced this as well. It started at 3:00 (by report; 2:35 by logs), by the time I logged in at 3:10 the issue appears to have subsided. Guessing it's something to do with reindexing, but will follow up if I learn of something solid.

    OnPrem CRM 2013 SP1UR1.

    To clarify, this occurred (for us) after we tried to search for a Contact, and then Open it. The opened record would throw the user an "Invalid Argument" error, while showing the above error in the trace logs.

    I think  this is on related entity not on Contact itself.

    You can try to use Fiddler or Internet Explorer F12 Developer Tools - Network profiler to find on which retrieve do you have this error:

    Example default Contact form retrieves Opportunity and Case/Incident (screen from F12 Dev tools):
