Argh. The screen you are on tells you that. Specifically - "Runs the input file jelly script and writes the output to the output file."

To be fair though, the error message you are getting is a little cryptic - it doesn't really tell you that "I have tried to read your script but found that it's not usable", it's only telling you that your script is wrong. "Value is null" is what it says - you've got at least one empty tag in the script - you need to find it, put a valid entry in and retry it. Also "unexpected EOF" means you haven't closed all the tags properly, but that might be because of it choking on the empty tag.
