CRM 2015 On Premise Install Error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by bmansfield81

I am getting the following error when installing MS CRM 2015 On Premise. 

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server Setup did not complete successfully.

Action Microsoft.CRM.Tools.Admin.ProvisionBusinessAction failed

A referral was returned from the server

The log details where the error hit are below. I've looked around and can't find anything more recent on it than CRM 2011. I tried the fix I found online pointing to a registry entry line but it didn't help - In registry on CRM Server: Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MSCRM; Create a new DWORD type registry value named "VerifyDomainName" and set value to 1

Any suggestions??

    Do you have  an account with all the AD permissions? Is this a 1 machine install or multiple machines?

    Here is the official list of requirements:

    Check this out: (it's 2011 but for this case the problem could very like be the same)

    SQL is on the same machine. The domain controller is separate. I saw that post as well but wasn't at liberty to start messing with the customer's other servers. We have accounts set up for each of the services and I am installing using a domain admin account.

    Seems like their resolution was reboots across the whole environment. Have that planned for this  weekend but not counting on it to be the fix. I'll keep digging...Thanks

    I was able to resolve the issue by deleting the TAPI3Directory naming context on our DC

    Used the steps here: www.isaacoben.com/.../how-to-remove-child-domain-and-other-naming-context-from-forest-root-domain

    Hello , 

    i am facing exactly the same error, but looking at the TAPI, did not find it (using command "tapicfg show" shows nothing).

    just want to ask how did you conclude it is TAPI issue? may be your thought process will help me investigate my issue.

    Thanks
