Here what happens. I have a project with a file that cause this exception. Working with the same file yesterday and after a project clean, the project was working fine. This morning after a computer restart, I got the same exception. I redo a project clean but exception doesn't desapears.

Exception in thread "main" org.eclipse.acceleo.engine.AcceleoEvaluationException: The type of the first parameter of the main template named 'generateElement' is a proxy.

After revising my code I was using my custom xxxResourceFactoryImpl. Changing to XMIResourceFactoryImpl continue to throws the previous exception. Another project->clean solve the problem.

        resourceSet.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap().put("myextension", new XMIResourceFactoryImpl());

The problem come and go without changing my model. The solution I found was to remove all file in the bin directory with 'rm -R *'.

Hope that can help somebody.

The latest solution doesn't work all the time. The problem reappears after modifying some templates.
I'm working on a mac.
Acceleo Version: 3.5.1.201409021433
java version "1.8.0_25"
eclipse-modeling-luna-SR1a
Any hints?
