== Description ==


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

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

Forum Thread: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/8/index/184494/1

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.

{{dashedborder|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.
