Cube: Could not extract user initials: User has empty name

Hi Dojo team,

We are facing the following issue when connecting to a DMA:

  • The user initials is not displayed in the user icon. The default initials ‘U’ is displayed in the user icon.
  • When opening an element card, the element keeps loading forever

When checking the Cube logs, we found the following:

  • Warning: Could not extract user initials: User has empty name
  • Exception: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation
  • Exception: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Have you experienced a similar issue?

Hi Miguel,

The incorrect username and initials has been fixed today with RN35584 and will be available in 10.3.0 CU1 / 10.3.4.

Thanks for the fix!

Alberto De Luca [DevOps Enabler] commented 14th March 2023

Please, just a quick one – Are there any conditions where in 2 servers from the same cluster, we can get the “U” only when the user is connected to one of them, while the other server looks fine ad all the account details are retrieved?

Bert Buysschaert [SLC] [DevOps Advocate] commented 14th March 2023

A possible condition would be if one DMA has a specific client version enforced and the other one does not – see https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Advanced_Functionality/DataMiner_Agents/Configuring_a_DMA/DMA_configuration_related_to_client_applications.html#managing-client-versions
