Error Message When Trying To Start Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013

Run the Environmental diagnostic wizard. It will show an error:
“Cannot communicate with CRM server”.

This issue is most likely to occur after installing the Microsoft Dynamics CRM client for Microsoft Office Outlook. Causes may include:

1. The IP address of the Microsoft Dynamics CRM server you must have used and not the DNS name during your Outlook installation.

2. The .srf mapping of the MSCRMServices service might be missing in your Microsoft Dynamics CRM client interface.

3. You could be trying to access from restricted access mode.

4. Your VPN connection may not have been configured to send your domain name with the user id while connecting to the Microsoft Dynamics CRM server.

Method 1:
