the Sales for Outlook client, follow these steps to remove the existing
registry entries and old tion attempts from the client:

Delete SFO client registry keys

Note Make sure that the Sales for Outlook (SFO) client is online. If the
actions that are described in this section are performed when the client is

Server where the Microsoft CRM database resides, click Start, point to All
Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server, and then click Enterprise Manager.
2. In Enterprise Manager, expand Microsoft SQL Servers. Right-click
SQL Server Group, and then click New SQL Server Registration.
3. Register the SFO client MSDE instance with this wizard. For
example, if the SFO client computer name is SFOCLIENT, the MSDE instance is
named SFOCLIENT\CRM.

Note If you cannot successfully connect to the SFO client remotely
with Enterprise Manager, follow steps 3a to 3f to enable this connection. If
you can successfully connect, continue to step 4. a. In Microsoft Windows
Explorer on the client computer, locate C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\Binn.
b. Right-click the SVRNETCN.exe file, and then click Open.
c. Click the General tab, and then change the Instance(s) on
this server: list item to CRM MSDE instance. (ex. SFOCLIENT\CRM)
d. Click TCP/IP protocol in the Disabled protocols section, and
then click Enable.
e. Click OK.
f. After you restart the Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook client
computer, the SQL Server Service Manager will now successfully connect to
the MSDE CRM instance.

4. After you register the MSDE CRM instance, locate the Subscriptions
folder under the tion folder.
5. In the Subscriptions folder, delete both SFO client subscription
names. These subscriptions may or may not exist, depending on where the
error occurred when you went offline.Important This article contains
information about how to modify the registry. Make sure to back up the
registry before you modify it. Make sure that you know how to restore the
registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up,

Data Migration - error

Posted: 13 Aug 2005 04:39 PM PDT

With the help of Microsoft's support staff we were able to identify the
issue. The migration's initalize tool did not set the Migration code to true
for the following entities for some unknown reason:
Organization, Territory, SystemUser & Business Unit.
The "MigrationCode" field is found in the cdf_EntityMigrationInfo. This
field is usually set to true (via some trigger) when records are added to
enityTables... when records were added to the 4 mentioned entity tables
indicated above by the initialization tool, the trigger did not "fire".
Just in case this helps anyone in the future.

To the best of my knowledge no changes in web.config.
Password change on the crmadmin acoount .
This is probably the cause of all teh problems.

And a install of the data migration framework but this was aftr the problems
with the webclients.
