Project Export Null Pointer Exception

[TheMLEngineer]

I'm trying to export a project and this error comes up. I suspected it could be due to limited disk space. I tried not exporting any data but just the shell project and the error persists. Can anyone help?

An internal error occurred

@Turribeach thanks for the information. I realized there is a folder that was pointing to share point when was on a different instance. In the current instance I bundled the project to, there is no share point connection so it is giving this null pointer error.

Unfortunately, I tried deleting the folder but won't delete. it sort of needs a pointer to delete. The folder settings does not give me options to change a pointer for the folder. Any guidelines?

Unable to drop data of folder project_id.folder_id: NullPointerException

Create the connection, remove the folder, delete the connection.

Thanks @Turribeach. It worked out and I'm able to export the project.
