Error: 'expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType'. Check your schedules/ init values please. Also make sure you don't have a backwards slash in any of your PATHs - use / instead of \. Full error message is in your terminal/ cli.

[Onkar007]

Apologies in advance, If this is a silly query

The steps I followed before reaching the bug
Step1: Setup Automatic1111
Step2: Install deform from extension tab
Step3: Install sd-webui-controlnet from https://github.com/Mikubill/sd-webui-controlnet
Step4: App start
Step5: Navigate to deforum tab
Step6: Hit generate button

Deforum generate 2 images and saves at output/img2img directory

Then video generation stops this error message can be seen on screen
"Error: 'expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType'. Check your schedules/ init values please. Also make sure you don't have a backwards slash in any of your PATHs - use / instead of . Full error message is in your terminal/ cli.

Thankyou

What's stable diffusion portable? What version are you actually running?

[Onkar007]

It's a single-click download for Automatic1111
GitHub repo of stable-diffusion-portable-main: https://github.com/serpotapov/stable-diffusion-portable

The latest version of Automatic1111. On app start git pulls the latest version from the master branch of https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui

[hithereai]

I'm afraid we can't support that version. Use the official one please.
