Error while creating User for Customer Portal

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a user for a customer portal.

In order to do so I use next code:

 

 

Profile portalProfile = [select id, Name from profile where name='Customer Portal Manager Custom'];

UserRole role = [select id, Name from UserRole where name = :companyName + ' Cliente Usuario'];
User portalUser = new User(alias = contact.UserCode__c, email = email, mailencodingkey = 'UTF-8', lastname = contact.LastName,                                             languagelocalekey= 'es', localesidkey= 'es', profileid = portalProfile.Id, timezonesidkey= 'Europe/Paris', username = userName, userRoleId = role.Id);

 

 

 

Role has been previously created.

I got next error:

 

INVALID_CROSS_REFERENCE_KEY, invalid cross reference id

 

And I think it is beacuse of profile. User is not identified as Portal User so I can not assign a Portal Profile.

But I dont know how to overcome that issue.

 

Someone knows how to do it?

 

I have checked

But field User.ContactId does not exist any longer....

 

Thanks in advance

Hi,

 

Try including one more parameter while inserting user."ContactId = contact.Id" where contact.Id is the Id of the contact which is to be created as the Customer Portal User.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks
