Bug: Unable to save a new module

• Version found: 1.0.1008.0
• Status: Open

Description

Some users have been unable to create a new module. They are encountering messages like this in their logs:

String or binary data would be truncated. and CDBModule::Add caught an exception: Bad HRESULT: 80040e57

This problem is still being investigated. So far the issue seems to be related to the Windows user profile name, particularly long names or ones with 'special' characters in them.

We are trying to determine the longest name possible, and what special characters are problematic, as well as if there is a way to deal with this programmatically.

Workarounds

So far, it has been resolved by creating a new user account that is shorter or has no "special" characters in it.
