What version of TC are you using? 

I'm assuming Script B relies on Script A. Does Script A sets any variables? Do you have default values defined for your variables?

Are you running this on your local machine?

We are using TC 15.54, run on a virtual machine. Script B is not dependent on Script A. There are not defaults provided for the variables. The two most common instances of this issue we've encountered, to provide better detail, are the following.

  1. Script A accepts a nameMapping Alias as a parameter, evaluates the Alias properly and fails on a property check. Script B, which also accepts a nameMapping Alias, throws exception evaluating a null object, despite the fact that it is passed the alias in the same manner as Script A.
  2. Two independent calls, subsequently to the same Script A that accepts a string and a project var as parameters. The first call properly evaluates the string and project var and fails on a property check. The second call properly evaluates the string, but receives a null for the projectVar, despite the fact that the same project var is passed to each call and it has not been modified between the 2 invoking of the scripts.
