Hi all,
I have set up a new windows 7 sp1 machine with a visual stuido 2010 sp1 , then I have installed crm developer toolkit, I have followed the instrusctions in the SDK to create plugins with it (which I have did alot of times before), but I have noticed that in the Connect to Dyanmics CRM server dialog and after selecting the organization the dialog window vanich, and when trying to add the plugin project to the package the adialog appears again and the same scenario is repeated, also I cannot find the CRM explorer dialog in the view menu.
Another Remark: I can't deploy any of my old plugins
Would anybody please help me to find what is wrong ??
Thanks and best regards..

Hi Mostafa,
This has happened to me as well. I have not identified the exact reason for this, but it appears to me that somehow there was something missing in the project or solution file so CRM developer toolkit doesn't identify the current solution (or project) as a toolkit solution (or project).
If you create a new solution again, this problem should be gone. Then you can merge your code.
It's a little strange, since when the problem happened to me, I was sure that I created the solution using the toolkit. I didn't give it much thought before I deleted the project. This could well be a bug of the toolkit.
Hope this helps.

You know, I tried the exact same thing. It is a strange bug. Maybe you can try to reboot your computer before giving it another shot.I have also tried removing and re-installing the toolkit with no luck.

We should probably fire a bug report to Microsoft for this issue.
Maybe someone from Microsoft can chime in for this particular issue.
Thanks,

Hi hongfu,
The problem for us is, we cannot find the menu item when the solution file was opened.

If the crm developer toolkit can not work,then you can use the Plugin Registration Tool

I posted a work around at https://connect.microsoft.com/dynamicssuggestions/feedback/details/738563/developer-toolkit-doesnt-recognize-the-visual-studio-solution-created-by-the-toolkit-itself#tabs
It basically says to close your solution, add the following snippet to the top of the Global section in your solution (sln file), save and reopen (it will probably ask you to reconnect to your org).
GlobalSection(CRMSolutionProperties) = preSolution
SolutionIsBoundToCRM = True
EndGlobalSection

Hi There.
For some cases, this was caused by a change to the URL after the CRM instance is installed.
Though it is fine to use to connect to CRM discovery service, when developer toolkit is trying to refresh the solutions, it will fail using the input URL. Double check and make sure using the correct URL listed in the developer resource in CRM instance.
