Getting null Exception when I try to spawn player

Here is my code. For some weird reason I am getting a null exception every time I try to spawn my player.

Thank you for the help in advance

Code (CSharp):

1. private void SpawnPlayer() {
2.         Debug.Log ("Spawning Player...");
3.         Network.Instantiate (Resources.Load ("Resources/SkeletonPlayer"), new Vector3 (6f, 0.6f, 4.5f), Quaternion.identity, 0);
4.     }
5.  
6.  
7.     void OnServerInitialized() {
8.         Debug.Log ("Server has been initialized");
9.         SpawnPlayer ();
10.     }

 

First you instantiate. Then you spawn the instance of the prefab (not the prefab).
http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UNetSpawning.html

GameObject tree = (GameObject)Instantiate(treePrefab, transform.position, transform.rotation); NetworkServer.Spawn(tree);

 

thanks so much!!!! that was perfect!!!! Now I am running into another issue though. I try to instantiate my prefab but it tells be there is no connection to the server. But the this is I run the code below and it gets through my nests if statements every time. The most odd part is that everything seems to work until I get to my instantiate.

Code (csharp):

1. public void SetupServer()
2.     {
3.         NetworkServer.Listen(4444);
4.         isAtStartup = false;
5.         int x = 0;
6.         while (x == 0)
7.         {
8.             if (NetworkServer.active)
9.             {
10.                 Debug.Log("Server Connected");
11.                 x = 1;
12.             }
13.         }
14.     }
15.  
16. public void SetupClient()
17.     {
18.         myClient = new NetworkClient();
19.         myClient.RegisterHandler(MsgType.Connect, OnConnected);
20.         myClient.Connect("127.0.0.1", 4444);
21.         myClient.RegisterHandler(MsgType.Connect, OnConnected);
22.         ClientScene.RegisterPrefab(playerPrefab);
23.  
24.         isAtStartup = false;      
25.     }
26.  
27.     // Create a local client and connect to the local server
28.     public void SetupLocalClient()
29.     {
30.         myClient = ClientScene.ConnectLocalServer();
31.         myClient.RegisterHandler(MsgType.Connect, OnConnected);
32.         isAtStartup = false;
33.     }
34.  
35.     // client function
36.     public void OnConnected(NetworkMessage netMsg)
37.     {
38.         Debug.Log("Connected to server");
39.         int x = 0;
40.         while (x == 0)
41.         {
42.             if (myClient.isConnected)
43.             {
44.                 Network.Instantiate(playerPrefab, new Vector3(6f, 0.6f, 4.5f), Quaternion.identity, 0);
45.                 x = 1;
46.             }
47.         }
48.     }
