How to use NAV 2015 Web Client without Internet access?

You will surely have happened to request access to NAV with the Web client from a computer without Internet access, for example in environments with high user turnover or night shifts, where it is often limited by security policies.

I found it interesting This post is by Gedas Busniauskaspublished on the Microsoft Dynamics NAV team blog, which explains step by step how to configure our environment to work.

As you know, the Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 Web Client is a distributed website, which users can access from any browser, and as I said, they don’t always have access to the Internet. AS, How can I configure it so that its operation does not require Internet access? Well, you need to make some changes to your Internet Information Services (IIS) configuration. These are the steps:

1. Download these 2 files:

2. Open IIS Manager, search for the instance of “Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 Web Client” you want to edit, expand it and “right-click” on the folder “Resources“, and click “To explore”.

3. Copy the downloaded files locally”jquery-1.9.1.min.js“And”jquery-ui.min.js“in the folder”Resources“.

4. In Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder WebClientand open the file with Notepaddefault.master”.

6. In the Windows Dynamics NAV client, open the “Check the plugins” (Control Add-ons).

7. Select Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Client.BusinessChartand hit Export.

8. Save the Zip file locally and unzip it.

9. Open the file manifest.xml and look for the label ScriptUrl:
<Script URL>

Change the line to the following:
Resources/jquery-1.9.1.min.js

10. Compress the folder again and from NAV click Question from the page Check the plugins.

11. In IIS Manager, restart the Dynamics NAV Web Client site.

Please note that after these changes, this instance of Dynamics NAV Web Client will no longer be able to access the latest versions of the 2 query scripts.

Well, I hope it’s useful to you!!
