Ok, so that fixed the problem and I could now go to http://mycrmserver
and use crm without having to log in, but know I cannot go to the IP,
it asks me for user credentials. not sure what is going on

creating snapshot during development

Posted: 04 Mar 2005 02:53 AM PST

Depends on whether you are also making changes to Users, Roles and/or BU's.
Since all of those also impact AD, a restore could result in AD beign out of
sync with the database.

Because of the annoying feature that I cannot remove unwanted fields, I want

HELP - UNINSTALL CRM SERVER

Posted: 04 Mar 2005 01:01 AM PST

What is your desired goal here? If you are removing CRM, than why would you
want to keep the router installed? If you re-install CRM later, you will still
need to re-install the router afterwards. And, depending on how complete your
unsinstall is, the SFO clients may need to be reinstalled as well.

I like to export the rule and look at it with visual studio.net or
another XML editing tool, it makes it a little easier to follow and you
can get the steps out by clilck ing through elements instead of
scrolling through text.

Does CRM have a Microsoft Project like add-on?

Posted: 03 Mar 2005 11:11 AM PST

Bill,

We utilize SharePoint as a PM tool. It does not have all the wonderful
features of Project, but we found Project too cumbersome to jockey with
for managing projects ( though more complex and long term projects are
suited for Project 2003 in my opinion). We have integrated the PM tool
with MS CRM. The SharePoint tools utilizes some great web parts for
project and project task roll-up views ( ie - My Projects, My Project
Tasks, etc) as well as others for an overall nice UI.
We are looking to finish productizing this over the next month or two
and will be adding it to our Effective CRM Suite for MS CRM -
www.customereffective.com which includes two free downloads for the MS
CRM community.

Hi
I installed CRM not on default website, because I'm using like default
Sharepoint Portal. So I made one virtual directory to my CRM folder.
Internally in my company if I make http://crmweb, CRM works fine.
By internet using http://domain/crmweb it doesn't work, it says application
server error. My default website I access well with http://domain, and if I
make http:/domain/crm/teste.html, it works too.

Can somebody help me on this?

Thanks in advance,

removing user license

Posted: 03 Mar 2005 08:37 AM PST

Dave,

You can do this directly in SQL if you want, but you need to be careful.

First, make a backup copy of hte SystemUserLicense table. Then, look at the
SystemUserBase table to get theSystemUserId for the affected users. You can
then delete the corresponding records for those SystemUserIds from
SystemUserLicense. not pretty, but it works.

decreasing performance when SQL in mixed mode

Posted: 03 Mar 2005 08:23 AM PST

Changing between Windows Only & Mixed Mode shouldn't have any impact on your
performance. Have you been able to verify that it really is this setting that
is causing the problems, or was it just coincidence?

The installation guide of MS says that you should use as authentication
method Windows Only or Mixed Mode for SQL server. Only Windows only
would be safer.
Because of different reasons (a mailmerge Add_on and the server is
hosted at an ASP), we would like to set the authentication mode of the
SQL server to Mixed Mode.
The performance of the CRM server is going down dramatically when you
do that.

Anyone any idea how to solve this problem?

We have MS Crm 1.2, Small Business Server 2003, A dual Xeon with 2
Megabytes of Ram and I think 100 accounts in the database.

Parameter report again

Posted: 03 Mar 2005 05:11 AM PST

Thanks, I got it to work now. There where some issue with the report so I
recreated it. Then I used the following code:

<%@ LANGUAGE="JScript"%>
<%
if(Request.QueryString("oType")=="1")
Response.Redirect("/reports/viewer/html/viewer.aspx?id=1425&promptex-Account="+Request.QueryString("oId"))
}
%>

Michael,
Thank you very much for your help. I will give this a try, as I really
hated to have to uninstall and reinstall SFO.
