Hello!

Any attempts to add the third language into BI Portal ends with
error about null reference exception.

I have try to add third language in system using recomended steps:
1. Insert new record in BIP_Languages:
INSERT
INTO BIP_Languages
(id,
language,
RTL)
SELECT 3,
'Russian',
0
2. Add related records in BIP_Language for new language id (=3):
INSERT
INTO BIP_Language
(FieldId,
LangCode,
LocalString,
Comment)
SELECT FieldId,
3 AS [LangCode],
'*' + LocalString, /* I'm using all records for English marked
with asterisk for resolution strings for my new language*/
Comment
FROM BIP_Language
WHERE LangCode = 1

3. I create a copies of Menu_1.xml and ThinMenu_1.xml files and rename
it's to Menu_3.xml and ThinMenu_3.xml

4. I'm then starting IE, type URL http://MYBIPORTALMACHINE/BIP and in
Tools/Preferences dialog change language for current user from English to
Russian, then press Save button.

5. The main BIP page is try to refresh, but error occured:

Server Error in '/BIP' Application.
