Calling Stored Procedure Error – Object cannot be cast from DBNull to other types

CRMLuke asked 9 years ago
I have a map I'm trying to run some tests on using a select top 2.

The source query is a select * from a sql view. The view ensures the field which is the input parameter is never null.

The destination is a stored procedure with one input parameter and two output parameters. 

Whenver I run the procedure via Smart Connect I'm getting "Object cannot be acst from DBNull to other types". I've tried checking the source field by putting it into a Calculated field but I get the same error.

If I script the stored procedure as an Execute to statement and copy/paste the value from the source preview window everything works. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Turns out the problem was that in the body of the procedure no values were being set for the output parameters. Simply adding this line fixed the problem. I will need to go back and update the procedure to do additional error checking and set those values appropriately.

SELECT @error = 0, @message = ''
