Business Contact Manager, Share Database Error

March 31st, 2011 No comments

When trying to add a new user to a Business Contact Manager Database you might receive the following message once you have selected the database.

System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlNullValueException: Data is Null. This method or
property cannot be called on Null values. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlBuffer.get_String() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.GetString(Int3 2 i) at Microsoft.BusinessSolutions.eCRM.BusinessLayer.Bcm DataStore.GetDBOUser

To fix it carry out the following :-

- Login to SQL Management Studio
- Run a Query on the Database (Right Click, New Query)
- Type in :-

EXEC sp_changedbowner ‘DOMAIN\Administrator’

Had an issue yesterday where once a VM was rebooted you no longer had any network connectivity.

You couldn’t ping the gateway or ping anything.

Running the following resolved the issue.

Start, Run, regsvr32 polstore.dll

Reboot and your away.
