If you have installed the Microsoft CRM Update Rollup 1 or Update Rollup 2, you might experience an error where you cannot publish a workflow rule anymore. According to Microsoft this might happen if you modified the web.config file in your deployment:

If you have modified the Microsoft CRM website web.config file, then you need to manually open the Microsoft CRM Web site web.config file in an editor like Notepad and add the following section to it in order to continue being able to publish workflows:

In the section <authorizedTypes>

…multiple lines here

<authorizedType Assembly="mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" Namespace="System.Globalization" TypeName="CultureInfo" Authorized="True"/>

</authorizedTypes>

Microsoft said they are looking at modifying the install notes to include this warning and/or revising the Update Rollup 2 installation files.

About the author

I work for a consulting firm in Dublin Ohio called Affiliated Resource Group. For the last five years I have been spearheading our Microsoft Dynamics CRM practice. I have a deep appreciation for the Microsoft CRM platform and I am very excited about it. You might even describe me as a Microsoft CRM Advocate. I have many battle scars from my experience with the product and I’m constantly being asked questions about CRM and how-to-do something in it. Hence, this BLOG is to help disseminate that knowledge and information to everyone. As of last year I was posting links to many other blogs to help spread the knowledge, but now with the community.dynamics.com doing that for me, I will be following that practice unless a really juicy article catches my eye. Many people have asked where my post are for the first half of 2010, my company had me posting to another blog and maintain two was near impossible. I am now down to just this blog. So good luck and I hope that this blog may help in some way. If you have suggestions or questions, please email me them.
