If you are stuck with the Plugin Registration Tool (PRT) in an IFD environment, one test to make is this one:
- Compile the Visual Studio solution using VS 2008 or 2010
- Deploy the debug or release files PRT on the server, wherever you want, in its own folder
- On the server, launch the PluginRegistration.exe file with administrator privileges
- When you configure a CRM environment for IFD, it is recommended to configure it with IFD + OnPremise, meaning that on the server, you can access (theoretically
) the CRM by using the local address (http://localhost); therefore, if you connect to the server with a login that has access to the CRM with administrator privileges, you don’t need to enter the credentials in the PRT connection:
- This way, the PRT will use the current user’s credentials, using AD authentication, which will work; you will therefore be able to deploy your plugins by using the following addresses in the “Organization URLs” fields (you need to ensure that these URLs are the same for each OU in your CRM):
Woohoo, now I can deploy my plugins in our secured IFD environment!
