Yesterday I mentioned that I received a working backup of customer's CRM 4.0 system in a VPC. This morning, when attempting to load the CRM Web UI I was confronted with an error, which led to this information in the Application Event Log:
Source: MSCRMKeyGenerator
Event ID: 18949
Error (partial): Current active key (KeyType : CrmWRPCTokenKey) is expired. This can indicate that a key is not being regenerated properly.
The most common fix for this problem is to restart the Microsoft CRM Asynchronous Processing Service but the service wouldn't start for me. Phil Edry, my esteemed colleague here at Altriva, said "try Rollup 2... that might fix it".
I owe him a beer... it worked.
Exactly why the "active key" expired and what Rollup 2 did to fix it still remains a mystery to me, but I have too much work to do to investigate it now. If you have some more details on this, though, please let us all know. Thanks, -TD

Plugin Registration Tool FileNotFoundException
If you run into this error when attempting to register a plug-in...
Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'PluginRegistration, Version=2.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. at System.Reflection.Assembly._nLoad(AssemblyName fileName, String codeBase, Evidence assemblySecurity, Assembly locationHint, StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Boolean throwOnFileNotFound, Boolean forIntrospection)
... you might read elsewhere that you need to copy microsoft.crm.sdk.dll and microsoft.crm.sdktypeproxy.dll to the same folder as the Plugin Registration Tool's executable. Although that might work for you, it didn't work for me today. I'm working on a VPC with a customer's instance of CRM 4.0 restored onto it and attempting to register a plug-in led to the unhandled exception. (I tried version 2.1 and 2.2 of the registration tool.)
The "fix" was to load the PluginRegistrationTool.sln solution (Visual Studio 2005) and recompile. The application then allowed me to register the plug-in. It apparently found itself!? :-)
