The plug-in execution failed because no Sandbox Hosts are currently available.

Ryan Anderson Profile Picture Ryan Anderson 421

You have successfully implemented CRM servers and expect your Sandbox service to execute plugins in Isolation mode; however, they fail with an error:

ERROR:
The plug-in execution failed because no Sandbox Hosts are currently available. Please check that you have a Sandbox server configured and that it is running. System.ServiceModel.EndpointNotFoundException: Microsoft Dynamics CRM has experienced an error. Reference number for administrators or support: #357E9BEE

Possible Causes:

  • CRM Sandbox service is not running
  • CRM Sandbox ports are unavailable on the sandbox server
  • CRM Sandbox service is missing SPN's
  • CRM Sandbox is remote and the CRM Services cannot be reached

Potential Solutions:

  • Ensure Sandbox services are running on each Full CRM 2011 Server.
    NOTE: Sandbox services are not required to be on a CRM Full serve role, but by using this option the local CRM platform and Async service will use the local sandbox instead of using one over the network.
  • If you are hosting the sandbox service along with one of the IIS dependent server roles , ensure you have TCP port 808 listed within IIS manager bindings for net.tcp.

    Example:

  • Check if you have the required SPN’s register against the Domain account used to run the Sandbox account. 
    NOTE: It is best practice to have least privileged account run the Sandbox service. 

Example: 
MSCRMsandboxservice/WebServerName 
MSCRMsandboxservice/WebServerName.Domain.com

If the issue is not still not resolved please open a support case with Microsoft for additional support.
