Setup validation error while creating trial instance of Microsoft Dynamics 365.

At times we have got the below error while setting up trial for Dynamics 365.

We tried out different options and tried creating few new trial instances but we got the same error in all of them.

Eventually tried it again after 2 hours or so and then the setup was successful, so might be some issue at the platform level.

Others have also faced similar issue before

Managed solution cannot update reports which are not present in solution package. Report 98b86a45-1dbb-e411-b283-d89d6765a2e4 is not part of current solution.

We got this error while trying to import a managed solution to our TEST. The error was because of one error during import we had removed the parent solution from the solution, but we forgot to remove the child report. So this child report during import was trying to update or lookup for the parent report which caused this error.

Removing the child report from the solution and importing it back fixed the issue for us.

Hope it helps..

Invalid Operation: Trying to update an attribute in Live, which is not allowed while importing solution in Dynamics 365

We got this error recently while trying to import a managed solution. As it turned out the we had few OOB reports in our managed solution that was getting imported to TEST.

Removing those OOB reports from the solution, exporting it and importing it again fixed the issue for us and we were able to import the solution successfully.

Solution with ID doesn’t not exist error while using “Applying Solution Upgrade” in Dynamics 365 (CRM 2016 Update 1)

We had a requirement to delete few of the components from the solution and we followed the new feature that is now available for this in product, starting from CRM 2016 Update 1.

https://nishantrana.me/2016/10/16/how-to-delete-components-from-managed-solution-in-dynamics-crm-2016-without-using-holding-solution/

However, we ran into the following error while trying to apply solution upgrade i.e. Solution with ID does not exist.

First time it worked properly and deleted the components from the TEST environment. Then we removed few more components and tried applying this updated solution again to remove those remaining components from our TEST environment, that is when we got this issue.

The issue happens because of certain orphan records which still exist in the database and references the old deleted solution.

Below is the fix for this issue (i.e. update those records in the database).
