Hi Folks,
This is the first time I'm totally stumped. I upgraded a BCS service app from 2010 to 2013. When it was running in 2010 mode, all was fine. As soon as I upgraded the site collection the BCS Profile Page is not showing due to an error.
The link to the profile page / default action is being routed through ActionRedirect.aspx which is throwing the error...
/_layouts/15/ActionRedirect.aspx?EntityNamespace=<DOMAIN>&EntityName=<ENTITIY>&LOBSystemInstanceName=<DB>&ItemID=1797
The Error I get is:
The passed in identifier is not properly encoded
I checked the logs, ramped up the BCS component to Verbose, but no clue as to what is causing this error.
When I create an action without any parameters, it works fine. As soon as I add any parameter, be it Integer, String or Guid, I get the above mentioned error.
I created a brand new entity with a brand new connection and brand new item and list readers, and still get the same error whenever I click on the default action for an entity. So this error not only happens for upgraded entities.
Rebuilding BCS is not an option, as we're looking at thousands of documents which have been tagged with the proper entity already and rebuilding BCS from scratch would cause all existing associations to fail.
Any thoughts as to how to tackle this problem would be greatly appreciated.
