Hi I was trying to push a package to my company’s feed using Octo.exe, got a 500 response from the tool:
Something went wrong while performing a delta transfer: Octopus Server returned an error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Falling back to pushing the complete package to the server
Octopus Server returned an error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I observed the file did uploaded successfully to the server filesystem, but was not properly indexed/able to view through the GUI.
I attempted to upload the package manually through the GUI unsuccessfully with a similar Object reference not set to instance of an object error.
I see the following when attempting to re-index:

Built-in package repository re-indexed with 1 new package.
I also observed that I was able to successfully upload the package if I renamed it (not semantic version). After discovering this, I planned to remove all older packages and just push the latest once that name was cleaned up. The GUI didn’t allow deletion of existing packages (also object reference exception). I removed the files manually from the Packages folder and ran a re-index:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object. System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
