Validation error "Value cannot be null. Parameter name: s" when editing local block

Vote:
 

Hi

I have a pagetype with a local block. 

Whenever I edit the page and change any of the fields in the block, I get the following validation error: "Value cannot be null. Parameter name: s"

Request data:

URL: /EPiServer/cms/Stores/contentdata/3348_6684

Payload: {"id":"3348_6684","properties":{"media.image":"\"/Global/img10.jpg\""},"publishChanges":false}

Response: {}&&{"successful":false,"savedContentLink":"3348_6684","properties":[{"name":"media","value":null,"successful":false,"validationErrors":"Value cannot be null.\r\nParameter name: s"}],"validationErrors":[{"source":null,"validationType":0,"severity":3,"propertyName":null,"errorMessage":"Value cannot be null.\r\nParameter name: s","relatedProperties":[]}]}

 

This happens only when changing data in the block-property, and not when changing regular properties on the same page. 

It's a MVC solution with patch 4 installed. It occurs in all environments, dev, test, prod.

Anyone have any clues on what might be wrong?

    public class CompanyPage : SimpleContentPage, IHaveMedia

        [Display(Order = 10, GroupName = TabNames.Media)]

        // More properties
    }

        public virtual Url Video { get; set; }

        public virtual string VideoEmbedCode { get; set; }

    }

Thanks for replying. Unfortunately it happens with both 7.0 and 7.1.

Just found out that this only happens in forms-editing mode. If editing with OPE/PropertyFor it works fine.

Fwiw, the cause was a custom IActionInvoker registered with StructureMap.
