    Hello,

    I am currently using CRM 2011 online provisioned through Office 365. I am trying to use the metadatadiagram program in the sdk to create a visio diagram of our custom entities. The solution builds successfully but when I run it it always terminates with an error.

    When it asks for the server I have tried every variation of the server name I can think of.

    crm.dynamics.com

    disco."orgname".crm.dynamcis.com

    "orgname".crm.dynamics

    All give me the same termination error before ever prompting me for my credentials. I believe it may have something to do with the office 365 but I am not sure. I also may be missing a step in using the sdk since I seem to get this error with every sample that is supplied.

    Thanks For any suggestions,

    Dwarner9

    There is problem in the code.

    These lines are the problem.  UserPrincipal.Current.UserPrincipalName is returning the null value . That is causing a problem. 

                        else if (config.EndpointType == AuthenticationProviderType.OnlineFederation && config.AuthFailureCount == 0)
                        {
                            config.UserPrincipalName = UserPrincipal.Current.UserPrincipalName;
                           return null;
                        }

    This code is from CrmServiceHelper.cs file.

    You can comment these lines and you are good to go.

    I hope this helps.

    Hi.

    You can get the server name by

    Settings -> Developer Resources -> Organization Service

    It should help with the URL / server name

    You need to debug the code. There are few problems with the sample code.

    For example in my org the discovery file look like https://disco.crm5.dynamics.com/XRMServices/2011/Discovery.svc

    There is no org name infront of it. When I fixed that I am getting LDAP error. Its too late. I try tomorrow morning.

    Check the helper file in the code. Thats the problem.

    I hope this helps.
