    - SQL Reporting Services not working - bad path Hello all...again... After installing on SBS SP1, when I attempt to open the report manager url: http://myserver/Reports, I get the following error: Could not find a part of the path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft CRM\CRMWeb\ReportServer\reportservice.asmx". This path does not exist. There is a CRMWeb\CRMReports folder, and the only reportservice.asmx file on the machine is at: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting Services\ReportServer I looked for the "...CRMWeb\ReportServer" in all the usual places...registry, .config files, but couldn't find it anywhere. Anyone have any ideas on this? Jon Tag: Quick ? on importing Goldmine data to CRM 3.0 Tag: 55191

    - Adding Users I was just reading the implementation guide and I have a quick question. After installing CRM 3.0, do all the users in the AD that have the ability to log into the domain, have access to use CRM? or is there a certain group that they need to be added too or do they need to be added into CRM?

It seems like it gives some sort of time out session. I ask something and then a loggin box shows up and I have to close the crm (outlook or the browser) in order to restore the connection.

    - The user authentication passed to the platform is not valid. I recently had to do a rebuild of our SBS 2003 server. Since our backup was corrupt I created a new 2003 domain controller - migrated active directory to it - decommissioned my SBS 2003 box - created a new SBS 2003 Server and migrated back to it. I restored the CRM Databases (MSCRM and Metabase) and Crm worked fine after. Now 1 day later all of my users are experiencing the following error when trying to log in from any pc and any user including the administrator on the server. The user authentication passed to the platform is not valid. I performed a repair install of CRM to no affect. The weird thing is that this was working after my restore and it just stopped. The only thing I did was install a spam filter but that should have no affect on this system and it worked fine previously with it. Thanks in advance for the help.

    - Connection to CRM through http - CRM web access problem CRM 3.0 client was installed for domain user in corporate network. Everything works when laptop is connected to the corporate network (in the office or through vpn). Everything means: CRM client in outlook and web access through IE. When I disconnect vpn - Web access doesn't work: it's trying to open CRM page and then "Page cannot be found" - it doesn't ask for login. If I login as a local user (not domain user), or from other laptop as a member of different domain the Web access works fine without vpn just http. What could cause this? And what is a difference for web access and authorization to CRM 3.0 through http when I login to computer as a domain user??? -- Thanks, Eugene Z.

    - CRM 3 Customization for Construction I own a small construction company and would like to customize Microsoft CRM 3 to include all information pertaining to a client in one place, including request for proposals, purchase orders, change orders, and project information by areas. Example if we were building an addition then we would choose the client from either Accounts or Contacts and then drill down from the project name (Addition) to the room names (side entrance), then all the items in that room such as baseboard, flooring, windows etc. all in grid lists, with the final screen a form that has all the details of these final items such as supplier, color size etc. So 4 levels deep. We are also looking at linking MS Project and MapPoint to CRM 3. Other Contractor related customizations as well. I am looking for help and willing to pay for quality customization.

    - Entering IP Address in the Configuration Wizard At the end of the CRM Small Business Edition Configuration Wizard it prompts for the URL of the installation. If you use the IP address instead, what are the consequences? On a related issue, what does it mean when the web client repeatedly prompts for a username and password when opened on the server using the URL. It eventually fails to 401 page. If the IP address is entered in the browser, one username password prompts appears, then lets you in. On workstations the URL opens right up..... The server is a fresh install of SBS and CRM.

I used my user account to install the CRM, with no issues, and I am a member of the Systems Administrator CRM Role. These are the following symptoms: 1) Cannot login to CRM from server at all (401 unauthorized) This is the failure entry in the security log: Event ID: 537 User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Logon Failure: Reason: An error occurred during logon User Name: my.username Domain: MYDOMAIN Logon Type: 3 2) Can login from external machine, but cannot actually access any entities; when I click on "Contacts" I get an error dialog that says "An Error has occurred. Contact your systems administrator for more information". Security event log shows the following audit failure: Event ID: 537 User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Computer: CRMSERVER Logon Failure: Reason: An error occurred during logon User Name: CRMSERVER Domain: MYDOMAIN Logon Type: 3 Logon Process: Ã?Ã¹Ã? Authentication Package: NTLM Workstation Name: CRMSERVER Status code: 0xC000006D 3) Finally, I cannot open the User Manager in the Deployment Manager. I can open the server manager and the License manager, but when I click on the User Manager, I get an error dialog that says: "The server http://crmserver.mydomain.com/MSCRMServices/ is not responding. This might happen if it is currently unavailable, it is not a Microsoft CRM server, or you do not have sufficient priviliges to run User Manager."

    - CRM client on a non-domain member PC? Hi, Does anybody know a workaround for using the CRM client on a workstation that is not a member of the domain where CRM is installed? It seems ridiculous that Microsiff require everything to be on a domain to do anything!! Basically, we have a very complex University site, with multiple subnets, AD's independently managed, etc. We want some users who are not a member of any domain to access our new CRM site, and others who are members of other domains (not trusted with ours). They all use Outlook 2003 using RCP over HTTPS and Exchange Server 2003 fine, and we're rolling SMS soon as we've managed to obtain a workaround for SMS 2003 that does not require the clients to be a member of domain either. I reckon that if I could get beyond the installer for the CRM desktop client, it will probably work in theory, but obviously I can't even get beyond the installation because it appears to do some sort of enumeration of the local workstations domain membership and currently logged in user (i.e. DOMAIN.COM\username), which it then passes to the CRMSERVER.DOMAIN.COM:5555 site for checking permissions, etc before continuing the install. Is there anyway I can trick the installer using a VBScript to set a 'fake' variable for our domain membership - any CRM developers on here that can help me with exactly how the CRM client installer enumerates the local workstation???

    - how can I publish the changes made after customizing a form? I have installed CRM Server 1.2 and I connect to my Home page from a WinXP workstation with CRM Client (http://servername). My user account has administrative privileges. However, when I customize the form in â??Lead Customizationâ?? and add new values in the â??Lead sourceâ?? drop-down list (located in Details tab), I realize that I cannot deploy these changes. After looking for information in CRM help files, I have found the following instructions: â??After you have customized a form, perform the next procedure to ensure that the changes you have made are saved to the database and will be reflected in the product. Publish a customized form: 1. After customizing a form, connect to the server on which Microsoft CRM has been installed. 2. On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Microsoft CRM, and then click Deployment Manager. 3. In the Deployment Manager, right-click the Deployment Manager node, point to All tasks, and then click Publish Customization. 4. In the Object Publisher dialog box, select the check box for the form you customized and then click Next. 5. In the Publish to Web Servers dialog box, click Add. 6. In the Select Web Server dialog box, select the Web servers you want to publish to and click Add. Note The Web Servers must all be using the same database. 7. Click Finish 8. In the Status dialog box, click OK. â?? I have followed the steps above, but when arriving at step 5 no server name is displayed and after clicking Add (still in step 5), the application hangs, so I cannot select any Web Server (step 6), and finally I have to end the task from Task Manager. I have IIS installed in the CRM Server and also in the Exchange Server. All the services related to CRM, Exchange, IIS, ASP, SQLâ?¦ are started and running. How could I solve this problem of publishing? Thank you in advance AnaÃ¯s Tag: Quick ? on importing Goldmine data to CRM 3.0 Tag: 55065

    - Custom entity import Hello, everybody, Can anyone help me with the following question: apart from leads and accounts we have some kind of pre-leads, i.e. the big list of names with addresses which are then mailed, etc. This is not the lead, but can become a lead after the person mailed expresses some interest. The objectives are: 1) Create new entity 'pre-lead' - done 2) Import there 3000 pre-leads from csv file 3) Be able to promote pre-lead to lead or account (just like we do this with lead->account) Problems: Can't find the way to import to this custom entity (only lead, account, company are available as an option). Also suggestions how to implement promotion pre-lead->lead are very much welcome! Is it possible at all? Thanks! Alex Tag: Quick ? on importing Goldmine data to CRM 3.0 Tag: 55050

    - Sitemap "Area" - Privilege Is it not possible to lock down viewing of an area button (on the left toolbar). In the SDK it states that you can only have "One per parent element." and the parent element is sub area. Am I understanding this correctly that you cannot block access to an area with the privilege element. If not, is this possible by some other mechanism?

    - Laptop Client user permissions In version 3.0 of the CRM laptop client, does anyone know what the minimum user permissions are to enable the offline functionality. Do special permissions need to be given to the user to allow them to run MSDE? As power user MSDE does not start. Thanks, Scott Tag: Quick ? on importing Goldmine data to CRM 3.0 Tag: 55042

    - Account contracts - related record view issue V3.0 We have found an issue with contracts related to sub-accounts in V3.0 - we can't get the contracts for the sub-accounts to display in the Contracts tab even if Include Related Records is checked - it only ever shows the contracts for the parent account... Is this a known issue and is there a workaround? thanks, Simon Tag: Quick ? on importing Goldmine data to CRM 3.0 Tag: 55034

    - Removing an email from a queue without deleting email from CRM Hi, Say I get an email into my personal mailbox and decide to track it in CRM (3.0). This email then appears in the Assigned queue in My Workplace. I can then accept it and it moves to in progress. Fine so far. But what happens when I've dealt with it and I need to get it out of the queue? I may not want to convert it to an opportunity, but I still need it to be in the history of the Account to which I've related it to. As far as I can make out, if I delete it, it stays in my personal inbox but disappears from the History in CRM. Other CRM packages have a "file it" option - has Microsoft omitted this by design or is there something I'm missing? TIA Grant Tag: Quick ? on importing Goldmine data to CRM 3.0 Tag: 55031

Anyone done it? I'm about to move my database from Goldmine into CRM 3.0 with
the data migration tool, just wondering if anyone else has any experience
with this. Does it go smoothly? Anything I should look out for?

Thanks,
Matt
