    Hello,

    So the first issue is related to 2 assemblies. To register it you should use ILmerge to put content of both libraries into one - nicknow.net/dynamics-crm-ilmerge-dll-plugin

    Why do you need app.config? If you have some settings inside I'm afraid you will have to find other way to pass parameters inside plugin code (for example through some configuration entity or through Plugin Confing or Plugin Secure Config).

    Hello Andrii,

    Actually we are using third party web service reference in the second library.

    Now when we are adding service reference into the class library the endpoints are getting created within the app.config file.

    Although we are passing the web service url from plugin unsecure configuration

    but the plugin is throwing an error of "Endpoint not found".

    the service we are calling if it's used using console application then it's working but while from the plugin it's not working.

    what could be the root cause that it's throwing this error.??

    System.ServiceModel.EndpointNotFoundException: There was no endpoint listening at sub.example.com/sample.asmx that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details. ---> System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond  (ip address.)

    This is the specific error we are getting from within the plugin.

    Hi

    You have to dynamically create end point address. Please refer below URL

    Hi

    Because when you run from visual studio your app.config is there so it takes data from appconfig. WHen you register the dll in CRM you are not registering app.config.

    For that only I told use Endpoint address class to build dynamical endpoint instead of referring from app.config file

    Hello Alagu,

    I understand the point you are talking about.

    I am passing the url from outside i.e. from the plugin unsecure configuration .

    and also dynamically making the endpoint.

    One more thing the same code is working in DEV environment but it's not working on the

    QC environment.

    Hello Guys,

    I come to understand this issue is because of the internet proxy.

    can anybody let me know how to bypass the proxy from the CRM server for plugin.

    Do i need to prefer machine.config file or web.config file of CRM .

    any pointer will be helpfull.
