Plugin registration tool error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

An internal customer has some developers who are unable to use the Microsoft Plugin Registration tool on their inhouse PCs.

The error is below.

My question is, do you need to have local admin rights to run this tool? A basic question I know, but there are a lot of hoops to jump through to provide local admin and it will take some time to effect, so I don't want to make this request and then wait if its not going to solve the problem.

Thanks! C#

    Hello IT_Guy,

    the error is from the server itself , i don't think it will work from the client.

    you need to provide the permission on server itself only.

    RE: Plugin registration tool error

    After further testing and with the help of procmon, we were able to see that the plugintool trys to access \\server\users$\ and fails with Access Denied when trying to determine available disk space. This occurs when logged in as a user with now access to this location. Users who do have access thought don't come across the disk space issue. 

    The location it is trying to access is the root directroy of the users network profile folder, which appears to be where certain logs are being written. So in saying that, can the location of these log files be changed to a local folder instead of a netowrk location?

    This article might have something to do with this, but the fix suggests increasing users permission to the root directory whih may not be something our security team will approve.

    Hard disk space is OK, and have tried copying the folder to the desktop.

    For clarification, on the dev's personal laptop via 4G, they check the Show Advanced tickbox, select the Online Region, enter username and password and are provided with our list of CRM Organizations.

    On the in-house PC, the error occurs (ie the list of CRM Orgs does not appear)

    I am advised that the error occurs when they click on the shortcut to run the tool.

    Can you please tell in which condition you are getting this error. If you are getting this error while registering plugin, then make sure the Isolation mode and location should look like below.
