Woo Hoo! After going 0 – 1 down to Middlesbrough within 4 minutes, it wasn’t looking very good. 2 minutes later things looked much better and on the stroke of half time it looked great when Chopra put us ahead (should he have been in the starting team last week against the barcodes?).
Boro then equalised but Sunderlands usual late, late show brought a final goal and Premiership safety.
When accessing MS CRM via the exposed web services, don’t forget to switch on DevErrors in web.config otherwise you’ll get no joy from the exceptions thrown.
At ID CRM we are replacing a cutoms built legacy CRM with MS CRM 4 and one of the tasks we have to do is to import the legacy apps contacts. So, I setup duplicate detection rules, and set them to run on creation of a record, update of a record and on import. I imported the contacts and experienced a few issues, I cleaned up the data and ran the import again with the knowledge that the dupe detection would handle this for me. I ended up with 95 % of my contacts duplicated . I’ve created a dedupe job to run every day (and it’s ran once already) without it finding any dupes. What am I doing wrong? Answer, hopefully, to follow……….
As I was flying up to Edinburgh I was up at 04:00 having gone to bed at 00:00.
Breakfast
Beans on toast – airport fare. I almost plumped for what I like to call the "breakfast of champions", i.e. full English with all the trimmings, but I resist
Lunch
Tuna mayo on brown
Evening
Watching Barcelona v Man Utd (very dull) brings with a lager and numerous slices of pizza, spicy wedges and other (good) stuff
When installing MS CRM 4, it really gets me down when I have to instruct the installation to install the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime time after time e.g. I want to install the server – I have to install C++ runtime, I want to install the router – I have to install the C++ runtime, I want to install the Data Migration – I have to install the anyway, I’m sure you get the picture.
While I understand that each of these components could be installed on separate servers, in my case they’re not. I’m installing to a single Small Business Server where everything sits on the one box (bar the client) and I wonder why MS could not have installed the C++ runtime for the server installation and left it on the server so that those installing on SBS would not have to bother installing it again? Even more annoying is the fact that if I install C++ runtime and then use the back key, I’m told I need to install the C++ runtime when I begin to advance through the installation again .
There must be other installations out there that install more than one component per server?
