MDT Error

Question

Hi I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction with this one. We have created a *.wim file using MDT, but when we try to create an unattended file the following error message pops up;

 

14:52 :

14:52 : Windows SIM was unable to generate a catalog. For troubleshooting assistance, see the topic: 'Windows System Image Manager Technical Reference' in the Windows OPK or Windows AIK User's Guide.

14:52 :

14:52 : System.InvalidOperationException: The operation failed to complete. ---> System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.ArgumentNullException: String reference not set to an instance of a String.
