Dynamics AX R3 DIXF and Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Framework.Tools.DMF.ServiceProxy

Hello all,

I've been searching for solutions to this problem, and tried all that seem relevant to my problem with no success, and am hoping the community can help. 

I'm trying to use DIXF to import items. 

However, when I click Data import export framework > Area page >  Data import/export parameters, and then click the "validate" button I get the following error:

System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Framework.Tools.DMF.ServiceProxy.DMFServiceReference.ExceptionData]: DMF1942 (Fault Detail is equal to Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Framework.Tools.DMF.ServiceProxy.DMFServiceReference.ExceptionData).

I was able to get more info from the debugger, and it is as follows:

NAME:
 ex
VALUE:
 System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Framework.Tools.DMF.ServiceProxy.DMFServiceReference.ExceptionData]: DMF1942

Thanks in advance

    Hi Tony,

    Did you install the additional DIXF components on the correct machines using the AX setup installer?

    Also can validate if DMF service is running. You can check service on windows services.

    Hi Andre,

    Thanks for your response.  

    I have the DIXF service, DIXF client component, and SSIS installed on the server running SQL, and the DIXF AOS component installed on the server running the AOS.  

    Thank You.

    Hi Ajit,

    Yes I have verified that the DIXF service is running.  

    Thanks for your response.

    Hi Tony,

    Is the DIXF client component also installed on the client machine?

  • Tony Garrison Profile Picture

    Hi André

    In this scenario the server running SQL is also the client machine (as it is a test environment), so the DIXF client component is installed there.  

    Thanks again.

    Hi Tony,

    It's not clear if your issue had been solved already or not. Can you provide an update on the status?

    Hi André,

    My issue is not resolved, the previous most recent activity was that I was asked if the DIXF client component was installed on the client server, to which I explained that the client component is installed on the server running SQL server since it is a test environment with only two servers.  

    Thanks again for your response.

    Hi Tony,

    Did you also start the AX client on the SQL server or another machine?

  • Tony Garrison Profile Picture

    Hi André,

    Yes I started the client.  

    It's when I click Data import export framework > Area page >  Data import/export parameters, and then click the "validate" button I get the error shown in the original post.  

    Thanks for the response.
