DIXF error [AX2012 CU8]


Issue: While Open Processing Group (Data import export framework/Area page/Common/Processing Group), system throws below error message.

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Framework.Tools.DMF.PreviewGrid, Version=6.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Possible reason:

After a fresh installation of AX, we have DIXF as a module but we need to install additional component as well to use DIXF.
In this case we need to install DIXF client services from installation media.

Solution:





Install DIXF client services from AX setup and restart the AOS services.
