After installing CRM Developer
Toolkit
·
Some people are reported unable to connect CRM
Explorer when we deploy CRMPackage.
·
Some are reported unable to find CRM Explorer in
Visual Studio 2012.
·
Some are reported there is no option to connect
CRM Server under Tools in Visual Studio 2012.
·
The most common reason for failure is CRM
Organisation has not set properly when creating the project.
·
The problem seems to be there is a missing
section in the Visual Studio solution file. Follow the below steps to fix the
issue.
1)
Close the Visual Studio Project
2)
Open Visual Studio Solution file in a text
editor like notepad or Notepad++
3)
Find the Global section and insert the block highlighted
with BOLD
Global
GlobalSection(CRMSolutionProperties) =
preSolution
SolutionIsBoundToCRM
= True
EndGlobalSection
GlobalSection(SolutionConfigurationPlatforms)
= preSolution
Debug|Any
CPU = Debug|Any CPU
Release|Any
CPU = Release|Any CPU
EndGlobalSection
GlobalSection(SolutionProperties)
= preSolution
HideSolutionNode
= FALSE
EndGlobalSection
EndGlobal
4)
Save the file and Open Visual Studio Project
5)
I f all has gone to normal, the connect to CRM
Server will now pop up and ask you to connect to your CRM Organisation.
