Hi

This message 'Distribute failed with errors to follow. ---> System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.' would point out that you have distribution enabled / setup on the task however the field it is looking for to distribute is null causing it to fail.

Hi Lokesh,

Please check the following:

1. Restart QDS from services

2. check the mount folder under Services->QVS->mounted folders
   \\server1\MyApps\App1\dashboard

3. select QVS and mount folder when creating task manually under documents->source documents
