Dynamics CRM Session Timeout

Posted on by AEdwards 765

Hey Everyone,

I have an on-premise version of Dynamics CRM 2015 with the IFD configured. The problem is that when users use the internal URL after some time their session times out. I've been looking around trying to find a solution to this and I did try the whole:

1. Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Adfs.PowerShell
2. Get-ADFSRelyingPartyTrust -Name "relying_party"

but I do the first step I get 'The windows PowerShell snap-in 'Microsoft.Adfs.PowerShell' is not installed on this computer. And if I skip that step and do step 2 and it says TokenLifetime is 0, which can't be right either.


I'm on Windows Server 2012 R2 running ADFS 3.0. 

Thanks

    You have to login to the ADFS server to execute this power shell command. Once you login on windows start button type power shell that will search power shell console.

    Also make sure run the power shell module as Administrator.

    Yes, I know, I had already done those steps too. I was on the ADFS server, ran PowerShell as Admin, then when I ran those commands I got the above issues.

    If ADFS installed correctly that automatically installs ADFS Power Shell module as well.

    Can you run below command in power shell

    Get-PSSnapin –Registered

    If  ADFS power shell exists in your server it will dispaly follwoing infoamtion

    Name        : Microsoft.Adfs.PowerShell

    PSVersion   : 1.0

    Description : This PowerShell snap-in contains cmdlets used to manage Microsoft Identity Server resources.

    If you dont see see this information that means something did not install properly on the server. You may try to Repairing the ADFS installtion that may fix this issue

    It says I have:

    Name: Microsoft.Crm.Powershell

    PSVersion: 4.0

    but no Adfs.Powerhsell

    Is there a way to 'repair' AD FS without uninstalling & reinstalling? This a production environment that can't really afford to go down.

    Execute the belwo cmd that will list all the power shell modules installed on the server

    get-module -listavaiable

    If it lists ADFS then execute get-command -noun "ADFS"

    then try with Set-ADFSRelyingPartTrust

    It seems there is no need to execute Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Adfs.PowerShell in ADFS version 2.1 and above. You can directly issue cmd's like

    Get-ADFSRelyingPartyTrust -Name "relying_party"

    set-ADFSRelyingPartyTrust

    I've tried running:

    Get-ADFSRelyingPartyTrust -Name "relying_party"

    but the TokenLifetime setting is currently 0. Which can't be correct, can it?

    *EDIT* TokenLifetime, not tokentimeout

    Apparently, 0 is actually default for 60min. I've gone ahead and run:

    Set-ADFSRelyingPartyTrust -Targetname "relying_party" -TokenLifetime 480

    which set it to 480 minutes, or 8 hours. We'll see if that fixes the issue, Thanks!
