finsql ignores username and password from command line

Posted on by Ralf2 5

Hello everybody,

to optimize the development with different NAV versions and databases, we call the development environment incl. database via command line.

Example:  "C:\\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\RoleTailored Client\finsql.exe" servername = "NAV2018", database = "DEMO_NAV_2018", ntauthentication = 0, password = foobar, username = foobar

That works great. It even opens the database immediately when NT-Authentication is enabled.

However, without NT-Authentication, the user and password input dialog appears, even though username and password are given.

According to the documentation ( docs.microsoft.com/.../using-the-development-environment-from-the-command-prompt ) I think the statement is right. We also tried all variants (different order, No instead of 0, ...), without success.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Ralf

    Hi Ralf,

    A lot of time have passed, however, we have the same issue with 11.0 version.

    Any idea how to fix that? Looks like a bug.

    Is there a difference if you run the command as a administrator or not ?

    docs.microsoft.com/.../using-the-development-environment-from-the-command-prompt

    The user name to use to authenticate to the database. The user name must exist in the database. If you do not specify a user name and password, then the command uses the Windows user name and password of the current user to authenticate to the database.

    Alert: If User Access Control (UAC) is turned on and you do not specify to run the Command Prompt window as Administrator, then the Command Prompt window runs as a standard user. In this case, if you do not specify the username parameter and the current Windows user is an Administrator, then the command is run as the standard user.

    If you specify the username parameter, then you must also specify the password parameter and the ntauthentication parameter must be no or 0.
