This problem might occur because of the connections authentication mode is not assigned to BDC Identity.

See the solution at Login failed for user ‘NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON’ in SharePoint Business Connectivity Service

  • When i use "BDC Identity" it gives me error "The metadata object that has Name <Name> has a Property with name ‘AuthenticationMode‘ and value ‘RevertToSelf‘. This value indicates that the runtime should revert to the identity of the application pool, but reverting to the application pool is not permitted for patitioned application service".
