Uploading BC Developer License to a container hosted in Azure Container Instance.

Posted on by 3,957

Hi,

I've created a container on Azure following https://community.dynamics.com/nav/b/andreysnavblog/archive/2018/04/02/quot-server-less-quot-dynamics365-business-central.
 I wanted to upload the development licence to the BC. Earlier it was possible with the help of NavContainerHelper module.
Thanks.

    I think at the moment bcsandbox is totally equal to dynamics-nav:12.0.21229.0. That's why you've got this message. Anyway you can use it.

    Hi Andrey,

    I've just created the container with "microsoft/bcsandbox", and I see this message:

    You are running a container which is 62 days old.

    Microsoft recommends that you always run the latest version of our containers.

     

    Is this correct???

    1. Use microsoft/bcsandbox image. It's always up to date.

    2. When you open VSCode, after installing AL vsix file from container just press F1 and type AL:GO and you'll get project template with all needed files.

    3. You can create container without dev license but you'll get the problems with running of your extensions, because their range are not included in Cronus license.

    Hello Andrey,

    I used the image "microsoft/dynamics-nav:12.0.21229.0", and as you said, the powersheel from azure is telling me that this image is 71 days old, to use a newer one, as you suggested, Where can I see the different images that exist, and the new ones?

    Thank you very much

    I've solved this issue don't uploading a license, and seem to be OK, I can open BC in the web browser. But in he link, in step 5, we can see:

    5. Publish an Extension

    Open the launch.json file and replace the server with “http://containerip”. Download symbols using command Ctrl+P

    Which file is the launch.json one? i should create a new one, or must tkae it from any place?

    Any hint or idea about this issue? I don't know how to proceed...

    May be we should do something as partners before downloading again the license file? ASking for permnission for trial or soemthing....
