Hi, I an new to Dynamics CRM, so please excuse my lack of knowledge.
I have a ASP.Net web app that had it's own contacts database for members, newsletters, logings , roles, etc. The client has decided to move to storing all the contacts in the CRM and I'll update my data access classes to talk to the CRM. We are using CRM 2011 installed as 'on-premise'. I decided to use the Early Binding (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg327844), and so needed to run the CrmSvcUtil.exe tool.
We are using a test Crm for the transition phase, so we are using a hosted on-premise CRM for 2 months during this period. So I have a URL and a username and password that I can use to login to the CRM.
I downloaded the 2011 SDK to my dev machine.
I then tried to run the CrmSvcUtil.exe tool, but all I ever get is the CrmSvcUtil help returned. The actual code generation never seems to start.
From searches I fould that I can run the tool like:
CrmSvcUtil.exe /url:http://myurl /XRMServices/2011/Organization.svc /out:GeneratedCrm.cs /username:MYUSERNAME /password:MYPASSWORD
AND
crmsvcutil /connectionString="Authentication Type=AD;Server=http://myurlUser ID=MYUSERNAME;Password=MYPASSWORD" /namespace:DynamicsCrm.Xrm /dataContextPrefix:DynamicsCrm /out:DynamicsCrm.Xrm.cs
I have tried adding more and less of the parameters, but all I ever get is the help:
CrmSvcUtil : CRM Service Utility [Version 5.0.9688.42]
© 2010 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
Options:
/nologo
Suppresses the banner.
/language:<language>
The language to use for the generated proxy code. This can be either 'CS'
or 'VB'. The default language is 'CS'. Short form is '/l:'.
etc.....
After search for a few hours I think I must have missed something simple, but I just can't see it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
