Hi Pavlos, I have applied the steps and will wait for 2 days to see if the errors will re-generate or not. meanwhile what do you think is causing the sandbox error ? I haven't seen it though since a week now but instead there's another error that's being generated very often. it's below..

Hi,
I'm afraid I can't help you with the other errors you are getting. They don't seem to be documented anywhere on the internet either. The Sandbox error could be related to errors in plugins (probably from native Microsoft CRM plugins). As for the other error, I don't have a clue.
Hopefully you will at least get rid of the performance counter errors.

Thanks, I have checked and the same errors are still generated! btw I have checked the user (service account) I have specified to run the CRM the CRMApp pools and I remember that I changed it from something certain user to Local System due to another error I used to get and when I read somewhere it said that changing it will fix that error and it did, could this error be occurring because of the change I did ?
thanx

Hi,
I'm afraid I don't know if this is the source of your problem, but I know that it is not a good practice to use the Local System (or any non-domain) account for the CRMAppPool identity.
