Random JavaScript Errors in CRM 2011 Outlook Client

Question

We are receiving some JavaScript errors that are happening in the Outlook Client only. They are sporadic, and difficult to reproduce. They tend to come from the Order form. Examples include:

• "Can't execute code from a freed script..." from the Address Lookup on the Order
• "this.$B_1' is null or not an object" from "_static/_controls/ribbon/ribbon.js" (trying to run a report)

Has anyone seen these issues or have a good way to troubleshoot?

Answer 1

This has to do with your JavaScript. I've seen this in upgrades mostly. Unfortunately it is painful to troubleshoot. If you are using setTimout, look at that code first.
