Hello everybody!
I’m trying to test XStatic, to deploy my site. As a first step, I’m trying to push it to a GitHub repository. The site is very simple; it has two documents (which are two empty pages).
But during deploy I get this error in the log:
{"@t":"2025-06-13T00:23:01.3827374Z","@mt":"An unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request.","@l":"Error","@x":"System.NotSupportedException: Serialization and deserialization of 'System.Reflection.MethodBase' instances is not supported.

XStatic is configured like this in the Program.cs file.
builder.Services.AddXStatic()
.Automatic()
.UseSecureUserGroups("[email protected]")
.Build();
I also use this email address for the local dev setup.
"Unattended": {
"InstallUnattended": true,
"UpgradeUnattended": true,
"UnattendedUserName": "admin",
"UnattendedUserEmail": "[email protected]",
"UnattendedUserPassword": "Password1!"
}
What is the issue, and how can I fix it? I couldn’t manage to figure it out.
