I suggest to do a NAV backup and restore.

If you're going thru the effort, why not move to 64 bit SQL while you're at it?

Navision 4.0 SP3 not support to 64 BIT, so its required only 32 BIT Software.

client not support

Do you mean the NAV client or your customer doesn't support. (The NAV client doesn't know the difference and therefore doesn't care)

I have install nav 4.0 sp3 on a 64 bit operating system with sql 2008 but Nav server is running and connect through client it giving error, Client is not support to operating system.

if connect through client with 32 bit OS its working file.

What build of NAV 4.0 SP3 are you using?

What are you getting for an error?

What do you mean by "Client is not support to operating system"?

NAV works just fine with 64 bit SQL. In fact, it's highly recommended over 32 bit.

SQL 64 bit ok but 64 bit OS ???????

Both are fine. (You can't run 64 bit SQL without a 64 bit OS)

NAV is a 32 bit client. But it will run in a 64 bit OS.

What sort of problems do you have?

Actually my one customer have 64 bit OS and SQL 64 bit also, but NAV 4.0 SP3 client not support, only we can install server, but when client run in server it not running.

if we connect through other machine with 32 bit its working.

bbrown

Can you be more specific about the problems or errors you encounter. We might be able to help you. I support lots of systems running NAV on 64 bit OS

BTW - NAV 4.x is no longer support at all. But, when it was supported, it was supported with 64 bit SQL.

This statement is false.

We have clients running 4.0 with 64 bit SQL right now without any problems. There is something special going on on your machine that's preventing you from running 4.0 client on the 64 bit machine. Your question is probably better answered on a Windows forum.
