Distance error: Cannot cast from source type to destination

Every time I run this code, I get a 'Cannot cast from source type to destination type'

The error occurs on last line where I'm figuring out distance to next.

none of the variables are null I just omitted some of them for sake of brevity.

Pleas help.

 var nextPointofRespawn;
 var numberofnextrespawnpoint : int = 1; 
 
 var points1 : GameObject[];
 
 numberofnextrespawnpoint = findposinarr(points1, GameObject.Find(pointOfRespawn)) + 1;
 if (numberofnextrespawnpoint > points1.Length){
     numberofnextrespawnpoint = 0;
 }
 nextPointofRespawn = points1[numberofnextrespawnpoint].ToString;
 distancetonext = Vector3.Distance (transform.position, GameObject.Find(nextPointofRespawn).transform.position);

Debug like this, check for any errors

 nextPointofRespawn = points1[numberofnextrespawnpoint].ToString;
 
 Debug.Log( nextPointofRespawn );
 
 GameObject go = GameObject.Find(nextPointofRespawn );
 if( go == null ) Debug.Log( "No game objects found for " + nextPointofRespawn );
 else distancetonext = Vector3.Distance (transform.position, go.transform.position);
