  Have a CRM 2013 installation on a Windows Server 2012 instance.  The database is on a separate server.

  I have set up IFD.  I have a wildcard certificate which I have exported onto the desktop.

  I need to install the certificate into the CRM database in order to install my solution which contains a connection to Azure.

  This runs without any error (although no feedback either):

  • Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Crm.Powershell

  The next one is copied from a blog but seems correct in terms of hyphens:

  • Set-CrmCertificate CertificateType AppFabricIssuer Name <I PROVIDE ANY NAME> -StoreName My StoreLocation LocalMachine -StoreFindType FindBySubjectDistinguishedName DataFile C:\Users\crmadmin\Desktop\<CERTNAME>.cer

  Alas I get the following error:

  • A positional argument cannot be found that accepts argument 'StoreLocation'.  At line:1 char:1 InvalidArgument ParameterBindingException... (etc.)

  Okay, I may have typed it wrong.

  Next I try:

  • Get-CrmCertificate

  This time I get:

  • The server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error, InvalidArgument ... CRM Deployment Cmdlet ...

  I also try Get-CrmServer and it's the same error. 

  I have had a 500 error with the set certificate when I messed around with the hyphens so maybe I had the right syntax at some stage however why am I getting the 500 error?
