Problem installing Scribe Adapter for Dynamics CRM 5.0

[Manoj Chaurasia]

Hi!

I have a problem installing Scribe Adapter for Dynamics CRM 5.0 on the machine (Windows Server 2008 R2), that is also a CRM 2011 server. The installer keeps notifying me that I need to install .NET framework 4 and Windows Identity Foundation. It turns out that both prerequisites are already installed on this machine.

If I run the .NET Framework setup found on http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspxFamilyID=9cfb2d51-5ff... displaylang=en (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspxFamilyID=9cfb2d51-5ff... amp;displaylang=en), I get to repair the framework. Did it. Did not help.

If I run Windows Identity Framework installer from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspxFamilyID=eb9c345f-e83... (Windows6.1-KB974405-x64.msu), I get a message saying " Update for Windows (KB974405) is already installed on this computer" .

Any ideas

Thanks

Hi Igor,

To install Adapter for Dynamics CRM 5.0, if you are not logged in as an administrator to the system, it is required that UAC setting is disabled. To do that go to Start> Run > msconfig > Tools tab > Change UAC Settings > Launch > Never Notify > Click Ok. It requires a system restart.

Hope this helps.

This issue is due to one of the following:

- Scribe installations must be performed while running in an administrator account

- Scribe programs must be run with UAC disabled.

Meeting either one of these requirements should allow you to install the adapter

I just did the same exercise and I can say that the CRM5 adapter works

You just need to make sure the following is installed

- WIF

- .NET 4

and that UAC is OFF and you have restarted the machine.

I was surprised to see that we now need to use the user friendly name (even for CRM2011 Online) instead of the unique name defined in the developer resources section.

Now I'll start the testing :-)

Thanks guys, UAC was the problem. Everything works fine now.

Hi, I had the same problem and solved it by copy the msi file to the Adaptor folder of the Scribe Insight Setup.

Then I could run the setup as administrator and updated the CRm adaptor.

Ludo,

Your suggestion was excellent. I just renamed the old 4.0 adapter to something else and it worked great. No rebooting required.

You can also give this a try:

Open a command prompt in Administrator mode and then run the CRM Adapter msi from there.
