Hi,
I have configured CRM2011 and SQL Server 2008 on 2 different serversand are working fine. Now i have alsoinstalled ADFS on a seperate server and so CRM as well as ADFS go by the default ports. I do have a wildcard certificate which has been installed
on both the CRM and ADFS Servers with respective website bindings pointing to these certificates and my crm domain is crmdemo.xyz.com which has been updated in the deployment manager - web address as crmdemo.xyz.com:443 and set to HTTPS for all the web addresses.
The ADFS Server is adfs.xyz.com and I am able to access the federation metadata url of ADFS Server from crm server as
https://adfs.xyz.com/federationmetadata.....
Also i have made sure the certificates under personal certificates and under manage private keys, the network service acount is given full rights. The CRMAppPool also runs on this Network Service account.
Now when trying to configure claims based authenticationon the crm server, everything goes well till the point i am ableto choose the certificate and after clicking the last finish button,the mmc crashes throwing an mmc error. This doesnt throw any error
desiption in the windows application log.
After having fone this when i try to brose the federation metadata of CRMserver from ADFS server as
https://crmdemo.xyz.com/federationmetadata/2007-06/..... i get an error saying invalid arguement
When i check the application error log on the crm server it gives the error asgiven below. Hope someone can help me resolvethis issue as i am stuck in this particular stage and cannot continue.
