Very nice, this rss feeder! Just a minor issue I experienced during installation. The urls of the webservices are hard coded to "localhost" in the files crmservice.cs and metadataservice.cs. On my vpc crm runs on port 5555 and you'll get a 404 not found exception when opening rss.aspx.

I changed the url in the cs files and now it runs fine.

Great idea. Once I get better versed with CRM 3.0, I am going to use this quite a bit I believe.

Hi,

I´m running in some trouble using the rss example.
When trying to connect to the rrs feed the following error is thrown: (Its the German version but I think the important informations are the same)

Any chance this is an SBS installation or you've installed the connector on a non-default CRM installation (e.g. not on port 80)? The code made a (horrible) assumption that it was able to access the web services on localhost.

I don't have the code in front of me right now, but it looks like the connector is trying to load views for display. If that's the case, make sure you can access the web services where the connector expects, or change the connector's assumption about the location for the service endpoints. See http://blogs.msdn.com/mikemill/archive/2006/03/30/565244.aspx for a description of the problem.
