Hi All…

Does anyone knows how to configure NAV User Password Authentication in NAV 2013?

I tried by changing the credential type in the General tab of the current server instance.

But after changing the credential type, when I restart the service, it gives this error…

Information

---------------------------

Server Instance ‘MicrosoftDynamicsNavServer$NAV70_Test’ failed to reach status ‘Running’ on this server due to the following error: ‘Time out has expired and the operation has not been completed.’. Additional information may be in the event log of the server.

OK

You have not completed all necessary fields for the Credential Type this client is currently using. The user will not be able to log in unless you provide a value in the Windows User Name field. Are you sure that you want to close the page?

No Yes

@Mohana.

Yes I did so.

Then how do I log using that name and password?

Still I can’t restart the server instance. It still gives the previous message.

Thanks for the reply.

If you look in Event Viewer for more help regarding erro then you will find

“The required certificate thumbprint is not specified. Specify a valid value for the ClientServicesCertificateThumbprint configuration setting.”

So you need to add Certificate for this
