Hi,

I am trying to find a way to change the authentication of the clickonce application. At the moment its set to navpassword and I would like to change it to AccessControlService. Is there an easy way to do this or do I need to edit the application manifest?

We are running Navision 2015

Edit ClientUserSettings.config of ClickOnce Package, change value of key ClientServicesCredentialType to AccessControlService, save, try again.

What I did was edit the clickonce installer config file found in the iis web folder (C:\inetpub\ClickOnce_Company\Deployment\ApplicationFiles)and followed the instructions to update the manifest msdn.microsoft.com/.../hh997056(v=nav.80).aspx

I also needed to export the cert from IIS to sign it to the new manifest.

Hi OptimAdam,

You can use Manifest Generation and Editing Tool. Important steps for Auto Update:

- Make sure AccessControlService work first.

- Edit ClientUserSettings.config of ClickOnce Package to use AccessControlService.

- Enable application should check for updates (before it starts).

- Increase ClickOnce minimum required version for the application (Revision part).

You can refer to my Youtube video at www.youtube.com/watch

(Auto Update Part is around 19:00).

You always need to update the manifest and the application if you change something. In this case you change the settings file.
