Cannot change anything in Development environment when putting Navision on Azure

Posted on 28 Oct 2016 09:40:44 by Microsoft Employee

Hi All,

I put my Navision 2016 on Azure and connect to Azure SQL,

Everything work fine, the RTC and Web Client connected in the Office

Problem happen when I use the Development Environment,

I can connect to the Azure SQL with database admin account, 

everything show, but when I want to add or modify a table and compile,

It said I cannot connect to the Server Instance,

When I check the server instance in Database information,

the Server instance show the Internal computer name of the NAV Server.

The internal name can never be touch (except setting up a VPN)

I tried to fake it by creating a DNS zone in the environment, or modify the HOSTS file.

both of them doesn't do the trick.

Tools -> Options and modify the connection string doesn't work either...

How can people use development environment when Navision is on Azure?

    Does it mean that Microsoft is not ready to put development environment on Azure? It is so pity that It cannot work seamlessly and the build-in license only allow 2 concurrent logon to a server..allowing only 2 developers to work there, buying a remote cal pack is also a cost..

    Check whether you can modify the tables using remote connection to that server i.e directly on server

    We also face this problem and then we configure remoteapp to use the developer environment
