Fixed: The form cannot be rendered. This may be due to a misconfiguration of the Microsoft SharePoint Server State Service error for InfoPath in SharePoint 2013.

Hi,

We had configured the InfoPath Form Services in our SharePoint server.

Now after creating and publishing an InfoPath form to a form library, while creating a new document we got the below error

To fix this, here first we need to check if the state service is up and running

Central Administration à Application Management à Manage Service Applications

The state service was up and running in our case.

So the next thing to look out for was the Service Application Association i.e. whether our current web application is associated with the service or not.

Central Administration à Application Management à Configure Service Applications Associations

As it was in our case it wasn’t associated. After configuring the same, the error got resolved.

Hope it helps.

“You must provide a value for Potential Customer” error while creating opportunity record through Create Step in Process in CRM 2011 Online

Hi,

Got the below error message while defining the Create Step in Workflow in CRM 2011 online instance. It seems like it is a bug in new online environment that have UR 13 applied.

Check out this thread

http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/crm/thread/51a63a3e-bd81-471e-a9d8-617bfe033271/

The workaround would be to remove the requirement level, edit and publish the workflow and the set the requirement level back.

Bye.

Fixed: Application Server Administration job failed for service instance Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance error in SharePoint 2013

Hi,

We were getting the below error in the event log every time we were clicking on Populate Containers button while creating a new synchronization connection for User Profiles.

Error :

Application Server Administration job failed for service instance Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance (90579710-4ed5-47e9-a3d8-de997f96262e).

Reason: An update conflict has occurred, and you must re-try this action. The object SearchDataAccessServiceInstance was updated by CONTOSO\administrator, in the OWSTIMER (2720) process, on machine CRM2011. View the tracing log for more information about the conflict.

Stopping the Timer Service, clearing the Configuration Cache and restarting the Timer Service helped us to fix the issue.

CRM 2011 Bug – Team Security Roles

Nice post on Team and Security Role. Do check the comments.

crm2011stuff

This appears to be a bug with Security Roles and Teams. To duplicate the problem, follow these steps:

Create a Custom Entity
Create a Security Role in CRM 2011 to access the Custom Entity
Create a new Team in CRM
Assign the new Security Role to the new Team
Create a new user
Add the user to the Team as a member

Now the new user is supposed to have the permissions granted by the security role assigned to the Team. Testing will show that you can access everything but the form.

Now assign the new Security Role directly to the new user
Have the new user log in and access the form for the Custom Entity

If you test at this point, everything will work. Be sure to access the form at least once.

Remove the role from the new user
Assign the role back to the Team

Now the…

Error Activating Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 List Component for SharePoint

Hi,

After adding the crmlistcomponent.wsp solution to the SharePoint’s team site, while trying to Activate the solution we were getting some error.

The solution for which was to start the SharePoint User Code Host service. However in our case we were not able to start the service, as it would stop after few seconds. The reason was because the service account under which that service was running was not a member of Performance Monitor Users group for the machine. Adding the user to the group fixed the issue for us.
