Fredo,

I stand corrected renaming the 000_AdditionalPluginsFolder.rb did not resolve the problem, but it did expose a different/extended message:

Error Loading File C:/Program Files/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/__loader.rb
can't convert nil into String
Error Loading File ZLoader__GhostComp.rb
can't convert nil into String

TIG, The __loader.rb does exist in the .../FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/ folder and has it's permissions set to -rw-r--r-- and all other *.rb files have the same permissions.

Fredo, The __loader.rb file does contain the line:

Traductor::Plugin.myplugin('FredoTools').effective_load

...and nothing else.

If I rename the 000_AdditionalPluginFolders.rb file the error appears to go away, which seems like an acceptable workaround. I am unable to use WebDialog for that add-on for somereason. All other WebDialogs are working, but that one just displays raw HTML, but does not generate any exceptions other than when FredoTools is loaded, curious.

Thanks,

Tom

Fredo,

I have installed Sketchup 2013 Make on a Linux instance and it seems to be working well. Unfortunately I have a problem loading FredoTools 1.2a. The error message I receive is:

Error Loading File C:/Program Files/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/__loader.rb
can't convert nil into String

I have tried disabling my other plugins to isolate the cause and then adding them back one at a time and when FredoTools is enabled I start having this problem. I'm happy to assist you in any tracing, since I'm aware that SketchUp itself is not supported on Linux. This is a brand new install and all plugins packages have been downloaded within the past 24 hours.

I am also encountering the same problem in Sketchup 8 on the same machine.

Kind Regards,

Tom
