NAV Web Client secured website

Roelof · 2017-01-25

I'm currently setting up a WebServer - WebClient configuration for NAV2017. Everything is installed. However, when I try to run the WebClient in a webbrowser (or NAV mobile app) it complains that the connection needs to be secured. I found some information online that only 'HTTPS' is allowed. I was able to Self Secure the client connection in IIS but it still has the same problems. I followed the same steps/info as in the following links:

- https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn757145(v=nav.90).aspx
- https://ksdconsultancy.blog/2015/11/04/configuring-ssl-to-secure-the-connection-to-microsoft-dynamics-nav-web-client/

Anyone has any ideas?

@Roelof make sure under this path in the web config file 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dynamicsnav90\webclient\web.config' on Line 12 to 16 should be commented.

If it is not commented then make them commented as these line will set to HTTPS ONLY.

where dynamicsnav90 will be your NAV instance name.

Also go to IIS Site manager and then go to SITES Folder select your NAV webclient website and open SSL settings and unselect require SSL as shown in the screenshot below:

Hi @Roelof
@zohaibu95 is has suggested you a nice solution but if you want to configure SSL for you NAV Web Client have a look at the link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh167264(v=nav.90).aspx

Also, don't use self signed certificates. Most (all) browsers will tell you it's unsafe.
Just get a real certificate. They're so cheap these days.
