Unfortunately, when I try to rebuild with this layer, I have next error

sequence item 3: expected str instance, NoneType found

I will at first try the custom.xml setup .... this will permit to 
inhibit some mistakes related to bad layer configuration. Regards Steph

The new updates to the Toaster Manual 2.4 has information about this in the just-completed "Customize Toaster" section.
