I am trying to download BC24 (On Prem) Symbols. I am getting an error. I checked all the dependencies. It looks correct.  I have all the dependencies in .alpackages. It is not recognizing any base nav objects. I am getting missing objects for all base nav tables, 
 
Version: US Business Central 24.3 (Platform 24.0.21458.0 + Application 24.3.21374.21517)
 
 
 
 
 
launch.json
 
 
app.json
 
 
 
.alpackages
 
I checked the event viewer :
 
This is the error message we have.

    Try deleting the instance name after server, http://BC2:8080/
    Also confirm whether the port is consistent with the server DeveloperServicesPort.
    If it still doesn't work, please check the development-related settings in the following file.
    Remember to restart the instance after modifying it.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for you response Yun Zhu. I tried. It did not work. 
     
    1. I removed the instance name in the server. 
    2. I checked the settings :
       1. EnableSymbolloadingAtServerStartup is true, DeveloperServicesEnabled = true, DeveloperServicesPort = 7049 .

    I am using 
     
     "platform": "24.0.0.0",
      "application": "24.0.0.0",
     
    I tried 24.3.0.0 for application. Even that did not work.

    • Considering the error from the event viewer, you are broadcast on port 8080 and listening to Port 7049 on the Launch.json file
    • consider confirming your port on the server configuration and put the correct one in the launch.json file, or just comment out the port parameter as shown below
    {
      "version": "0.2.0",
      "configurations": [
        {
          "name": "BC2",
          "request": "launch",
          "type": "al",
          "environmentType": "OnPrem",
          "server": "http://BC2:8080",  // Corrected: Removed "BC-Sandbox"
          "serverInstance": "BC-Sandbox",
          "authentication": "AAD",
          // "port": 7049,  // This is now a comment
          "breakOnError": "All",
          "launchBrowser": true,
          "enableLongRunningSqlStatements": true,
          "enableSqlInformationDebugger": true,
          "tenant": "default",
          "schemaUpdateMode": "Synchronize"
        }
      ]
    }

    The issue is resolved. I can download the symbols now. The ODataservicesEnabled = false. I changed the settings. It worked.
