Tuesday, April 6, 2010, 05:53 PM
I run into a problem that when configuring IFD tool, it doesn't update the database and when browsing to CRM I run into error:
"Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

the solution:

change the value in registry of CRM web site and do IIS:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM should have been '/LM/W3SVC/5'

Site map error after change language 
Tuesday, November 3, 2009, 04:12 PM - Bugs / Known Issues
We install CRM 4 Hebrew version and add several custom files and URLs to Reports.

After install English Langague pack and change to English langauge, we receive error about site map:

The application cannot start due to an error in the sitemap. For more information, contact your system administrator. System administrators: To view detailed error information, turn on DevErrors in web.config. To repair the existing sitemap, you can export it from: http://<servername>/ tools/ systemcustomization/ ExportCustomizations/ exportCustomizations.aspx. To import a new sitemap, go to http://<servername>/ tools/ systemcustomization/ ImportCustomizations/ importCustomizations.aspx


The problem was that &amp character was in site map, so the solution was to delete this character and import site map again.

Error while publishing CRM 4.0 Workflow 
Tuesday, November 3, 2009, 04:08 PM - Bugs / Known Issues
While trying to publish workflow, I recieve: general error, try save again.

The solution was to add 4 lines into CRM web.config under <Authorized Type>:

<authorizedType Assembly="mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" Namespace="System" TypeName="Void" Authorized="True"/>
<authorizedType Assembly="mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" Namespace="System.Reflection" TypeName="AssemblyFileVersionAttribute" Authorized="True"/>
<authorizedType Assembly="mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" Namespace="System.Reflection" TypeName="AssemblyVersionAttribute" Authorized="True"/>
<authorizedType Assembly="mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" Namespace="System.Globalization" TypeName="CultureInfo" Authorized="True"/>

Changing the Link of a Ticker Symbol from MSN Money to Google Finances 
Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 12:09 PM
This is unsupported solution to change the ticker symbol to Google finance:


On C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\_forms\controls (may vary depending on your installation)
Open the following file: INPUT.text.ticker.htc

Change the line:

safeWindowOpen("http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?linkid=8506&clcid=" + CrmEncodeDecode.CrmUrlEncode(USER_LANGUAGE_CODE) + "&Symbol=" + CrmEncodeDecode.CrmUrlEncode(value), "", "height=" + (screen.availHeight * .75) + ",width=" + (screen.availWidth * .75) + ",scrollbars=1,resizable=1,status=1,toolbar=1,menubar=1,location=1");


Replace with:

safeWindowOpen("http://finance.google.com/finance?q=" + CrmEncodeDecode.CrmUrlEncode(value), "", "height=" + (screen.availHeight * .75) + ",width=" + (screen.availWidth * .75) + ",scrollbars=1,resizable=1,status=1,toolbar=1,menubar=1,location=1");
