Please help!
I have Active Dir, Exchange and SQL 2000 on the same Win
2000 server machine. Installed CRM OK. Made security
service dependent as outlined in deployment guide. Created
an account in CRM and can browse around, but cannot save
anything. The error I am getting is:

Server Error in '/' Application.

A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected
from the client
(crmFormSubmitXml="<activity><activityt...").
Description: Request Validation has detected a potentially
dangerous client input value, and processing of the
request has been aborted. This value may indicate an
attempt to compromise the security of your application,
such as a cross-site scripting attack. You can disable
request validation by setting validateRequest=false in the
Page directive or in the configuration section. However,
it is strongly recommended that your application
explicitly check all inputs in this case.

Angel,

CRM doesn't support the 1.1 .Net framework. You will need to backup to the
1.0 sp2 framework in order to get CRM to work. This may also require you to
re-install CRM afterwards, I'm not sure.

HTH,
Matt

Someone posted a workaround earlier:

Modify your web.config file. You need validateRequest="false" in the
<pages/> node.

Here is an example:

<system.web>
<compilation defaultLanguage="C#" debug="false"/>
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<identity impersonate="true"/>
<pages buffer="true" enableSessionState="false"
enableViewState="false" validateRequest="false"/>
<sessionState mode="Off"/>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>

I rolled back to .net framework sp2 and reinstalled CRM
and it worked.
But I will prefer using .net framework 1.1 if possible...
