CRM 4 Client (IE8 & Vista): View Regarding = Blank Page

July 2nd, 2009

So i just installed the CRM client on a Vista machine, everything was working well.

I configured the client and was testing the TRACKING of emails.

Tracked an email - worked

View the Email in CRM - worked

View Regarding - nah, dosen’t like that.. blank page - what the..

So i said, maybe we need update rollup 1 for the client so i procceeded to install it and it said something about an escalation error.

I looked through computer settings and noticed the UAC was still turned ON and i turned it OFF and rebooted the PC.

I was able to view the record with no blank page - woo.. UAC <– WHAT???

Ohh and you can now install the update rollup because UAC is now disabled.

OWA 2003: 503 - Service Unavailable

June 28th, 2009

Hello everyone,

I just had the pleasure of not properly shutting down 2 exchange 2003 servers due to some urgent issue we had..

As we were powering them up, everything seemed OK except when a user tried to login, they would get a “503 - Service Unavailable”.

Hmm ok, i thought maybe there’s something wrong with IIS so i ran an “IISRESET” and tried to login and got the same error. I thought ahh crap i hope i didn’t break the exchange server by cutting the power.

I quickly ran the through the list of running services (start > run > services.msc) and found that the “Microsoft Exchange Information Store” and the “Microsoft Exchange MTA Stacks” services weren’t running so i quickly started them and boom to my luck Outlook web access 2003 started working again..

Don’t you just love Microsoft..

Sharepoint - Unknown Error has occurred

May 28th, 2009

I too have dreaded this error - it means nothing to me and just pisses me off especially when developing webparts.

You can remove this by opening the web.config,

Search for <customErrors mode=On /> and change it to <customErrors mode=Off />

To see the call stack and trace information. Find

<SafeMode MaxControls=200CallStack=falseDirectFileDependencies=10TotalFileDependencies=50AllowPageLevelTrace=false>

and change the value of “CallStack” to true.

<SafeMode MaxControls=200CallStack=trueDirectFileDependencies=10TotalFileDependencies=50AllowPageLevelTrace=true>

Finally, don’t forget the set debug=”true” in the web.config or it won’t matter whether you put the assembly in GAC or not without it the breakpoints will turn all nice and red, but it won’t stop anywhere. If you want to enable generation of debug symbols for just in time compilation Find

<compilation batch=false debug=false>

and change it to

<compilation batch=false debug=true>.

Although none of these are appropriate for a production environment, but they all make development much easier.
