BCS Error - Access denied by Business Data Connectivity


I recently came across this error while attempting to configure an external content type in SharePoint 2013.
The error message showed Access denied by Business Data Connectivity.
On verifying the ULS logs the found errors as given in the table beneath the post

Found the following support article, but it did not like the problem that I was having at hand.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2686411

Then I came across this comment on the link
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4168309/sharepoint-bcs-sss-help-needed

This happens because you have not set access on the BCS object that you created. Go into Central Administration and select your External Content Type or other object and select Set Permissions from the dropdown. Your authentication is working or you would not be able to save the object you created to the metadata store. You now need to tell the metadata store who has access to the objects you created in BCS. 

It worked like a charm.

Updating in my blog post so that someone searching for similar errors in ULS get some Info here.

Thank you for this post!
If I had such an issue, I would use some virtual data room.
As ideals data room providers say, this service is based on cloud technology of storing data and provides fast and secure access to data.

Business data access denied can be resolved. The site of online assignment writing help helps for the latest information for the problem solving. The details for the books and technology mention on site. People might use these for the error position. The problem might resolved by using data.

SharePoint 2013 workflow : The server was unable to process the request

Here, I received another SharePoint 2013 workflow error. This time the workflow was not able to send emails and the following error was being shown Retrying last request. Next attempt scheduled in less than one minute. Details of last request: HTTP Unauthorized to http://sitename/_vti_bin/client.svc/web/lists/getbyid(guid'guid') Correlation Id: id Instance Id: id Fortunately I came across this post which gave me the answer http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/89101/failed-to-retrieve-the-com-class-factory-for-component-with-clsid-sp-sprequest Solution 1: In InetMgr, go to advanced settings for Security Token Service Application Pool and change "Load User Profile" to true. Recycle application pool. Reason 2 and Solution 2 : There could be another reason for this error. The workflow authentication can fail if the user executing the workflow (this will be the user initiating the workflow) is given permission through active directory group and the co...

Your me, my me and the other me. A guide to be at peace with personal growth

This article is not a direct address to a problem statement, but a journey with me to certain philosophies that I have entertained in my quest for personal growth. There is a short and effective way to look at personal growth which I will come to in this article, one that I believe will help you to be more closer to peace with the practice of personal development.  I am thankful to many people in my life, for instilling in me a desire for personal growth in my life.  Both my parents have always been open to learning and cared to share some of their struggles with difficult choices and dilemmas associated with scenarios. A few school teachers stood out in vocalising their own personal learnings and set an example by embracing the incompleteness in spite of not being required to do so. I was fortunate to have attended a school that celebrated learning and instilled pride, largely thanks to the unconventional principal that held office there. The themes you can notice in these ex...
