Failure during email generation

[CTDhelpdesk]

Using the latest revision of the script, I get this error when it gets to the point of actually creating / sending the email:

C:\Scripts\Backend\ChangeHistory\example.org_Administrators-ChangeHistory.csv VERBOSE: [Monitor-ADGroupMemberShip.ps1][Process] Administrators - Change History Process Completed VERBOSE: [Monitor-ADGroupMemberShip.ps1][Process] Administrators - Save Changes to a ChangesHistory File VERBOSE: [Monitor-ADGroupMemberShip.ps1][Process] Administrators - Preparing the notification email...

Not sure what Object Reference not set to an instance of an object means...

Love the script though, thanks for all your hard work!

Did anyone already solved this issue? I also have the same problem:

VERBOSE: [Monitor-ADGroupMembership.ps1][Process] Domain Admins - Preparing the notification email...
WARNING: [Monitor-ADGroupMembership.ps1][Process] Something went wrong
WARNING: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
VERBOSE: [Monitor-ADGroupMembership.ps1][Process] Group: Enterprise Admins...

This is when i start the script manually with "-EmailPort 25" is added as parameter.

Nope. With some deeper debugging it worked out, if I only specified on group to monitor. But as soon as the group had none member, the error came back.

I have the same issue with version 2.0.7 Using version 2.0.3 as work around. https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Monitor-ADGroupMemberShip/2.0.3.0/Content/Monitor-ADGroupMemberShip.ps1

Just in case this was your problem... I'm using a slightly older SMTP server and am NOT sending out of house. The SMTP server doesn't support SSL so there were 2 lines in the file of: Send-MailMessage @mailParam -UseSsl -BodyAsHtml I remmed them out and changed to
Send-MailMessage @mailParam -BodyAsHtml All good now on that front. BUT, SSL should really be used from a security standpoint!
