I am suffering with External lists for 3 days and they still don’t work; so if it is taking so much to configure a SharePoint 2010 external list, then SharePoint 2010 is the garbage of all garbage.

I have found another reason for getting the error. When creating the external data source, if you map a column as an identifier, it cannot contain null values in the database. Just make sure whatever column you use as an identifier has a value in the database for each entry.

I have try the first approach, but fail.

I have created an external list with 2001 records after doing first approach with changing the default limit to 5000 and max to 20000, and the error still display.

Should I reconfigure the MOSS or do other changes?
