Failed to get default author name
When generating documentation on the command line, I run into the following error, despite the documentation generating successfully. The problem then, is that the error code fails in CI (pipeline).
./SQLDoc.exe /filetype:html /outputfolder:AdventureWorks /server:. /database:AdventureWorks /copyrightauthor:"someperson@me.com" /server_alias:AdventureWorks /name:HappyFrog /force
