With blog syndicated, your blog post would also be published to Dynamics community as well and active participation in the community, either through blog post or through answering in forums etc. is rewarded through badges by Microsoft, which I believe is nice way of encouraging and recognizing the community contributors.

Check all the badges here à

In fact, there is a badge if you ask your first question in the forum

For last month September 2018, I got the Top 10 in September 2018 Blog Leaderboard badge

We can also check our rank in the leaderboard

We can also check the leaderboard for the lifetime

Our Dynamics Community is one of the best out there and so would also request and recommend all the Dynamics 365 Professionals to actively participate and contribute in the community, ask question regarding the issues you are facing, answer few of them or at least read all the answered questions to see what issues one can face during the implementation and the solution to it.

Error validating profile registration while configuring Microsoft Dynamics 365 Data Export Service


While configuring the Data Export Service we got the below error while validating the profile

It mostly occurs if there is some issue with the connection string specified in the PowerShell Script used for generating the key vault.

Always copy the connection string from the Azure SQL Connection Strings property and double check the username and password provided there. And make sure the user specified has all the required rights.

Correcting the connection string resulted in successful validation of the export profile.

Hope it helps..

Could not load file or assembly ‘CrmLibraries, Version=8.0.0.0’ while using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Developer Toolkit


While trying to deploy Plugin through Developer Toolkit we got the below error

Could not load file or assembly ‘CrmLibraries, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

   at System.Reflection.RuntimeAssembly._nLoad(AssemblyName fileName, String codeBase, Evidence assemblySecurity, RuntimeAssembly locationHint, StackCrawlMark& stackMark, IntPtr pPrivHostBinder, Boolean throwOnFileNotFound, Boolean forIntrospection, Boolean suppressSecurityChecks)

We will get this error if we haven’t configured the path to Plug-in Registration Tool and CRM SDK Bin Directory in our Visual Studio


Hope it helps..

 

“An error occurred when verifying security for the message” in Dynamics 365 CE


While trying to connect to Dynamics 365 CE through a console application we were getting the below error.

“An unsecured or incorrectly secured fault was received from the other party”

“An error occurred when verifying security for the message”

Changing the version of the assemblies referenced, changing the target version of the framework etc. didn’t help.

Eventually we realized that the Date and time was incorrect in the machine (was one day ahead). It is 27th September while writing this blog post.

Correcting it fixed the issue.

Hope it helps..

The type or namespace name Xrm could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) error while using Azure Functions 2.x


Recently while working on Azure Functions (https://nishantrana.me/category/azure-functions/), we started getting the error that type or namespace Xrm could not be found.

We had added the project.json file with appropriate NuGet Package reference inside it

It was later we realized that project.json file have been replaced with function.proj in Azure Function 2.0.

LookupRecordNotAvailable error while using Configuration Migration Tool in Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement


While trying to migrate the record using the Configuration Migration Tool, we were getting error like below in the log

ImportEntity – Result: True – Entity: transactioncurrency – Adding transactioncurrency to the reprocess List as field createdonbehalfby with value 05d52058-eb35-41e8-8af7-dfb7120c4599 – LookupEntity systemuser and Record Id 2655712b-e13b-e711-80fb-5065f38b5691 (SYSTEM) – (action:Update) failed validation for reason code: LookupRecordNotAvailable

As we do not want to migrate the createdonbehalfby field, the easiest fix for this is to remove the field from the schema.

Ideally instead of adding the entire Entity, we should select only those fields whose value we want to migrate in the Schema file.

Hope it helps..
