Dashboard throws the error "The reference to entity "B" must end with the ';' delimiter" instead of displaying reports

KB Summary by Now Assist

Issue

Symptoms


Dashboard throws the error "The reference to entity "B" must end with the ';' delimiter" instead of displaying reports. 

Release


Kingston

Cause


This error would be thrown because the records the reports in the dashboard widget are trying to access might contain special character(check for &).

Resolution


There are two ways to resolve the issue. Resolution 1 is preferred over 2 as the latter involves changing the system property.

  1. Check the records the report is trying to access for special characters and remove them.
  2. Set the system property glide.ui.escape_text to true.
