Is this even the full code?

[Krown420]

yes it is

According to the error, you have "D Button" somewhere which is a nil value, but in the code, you don't have something like that? So, that obviously can't be it. Look in your whole code for "D Button" and remove the space. It's most likely the issue.

Is this in /server? :v Put your clientside in /client, and server in /server.

Or just put it in shared since he has both serverside and clientside code.

autorun/client/ -- Client
autorun/server/ -- Server
autorun/ -- Shared

So in other words, your location should be,
autorun/poop.lua -- of course you can rename this..

Create your button a little later... InitPostEntity or so.. You may be having the issue where the script is loading before either the GMod lua/vgui/ elements are loading ( unlikely ), or before the client has loaded everything.

You could even do this:

local DButton = nil;

hook.Add( "HUDPaint", "InitVGUI", function( )
	// This will run a few times while the player is invalid...
	local _p = LocalPlayer( );
	if ( !IsValid( _p ) ) then return; end

	// Create the dbutton when the player is valid
	DButton = vgui.Create( "DButton" );

	// We only need this to run once after the localplayer exists...
	hook.Remove( "HUDPaint", "InitVGUI" );
end );
