Cannot access native database from multiple session

Connecting to the proprietary database from the client
www.mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=9091&start=15&sid=1fd5f679548fa29edfdb9ed22bec0d85

DenSter's:
You have your database file on the network, and someone is just connecting directly to the database file. This way only one session at a time can be connected. You are not connecting through the Navition Database Server.

You need to install the Navision Database Server, and when connecting to it, instead of browsing to the database file, you enter the server name and then it should find it automatically. Note that when you want to use the name your machine must know how to resolve it, so you need to add the IP address and port number to your hosts and services files. You can always use the server's IP address directly in the server name box when you connect the client.

SQL vs Native database?

Navision native db - SQL Server Option
http://mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=1400&start=0&hilit=SQL+vs+native+site%3Amibuso.com&sid=45333238e2d902aa91a5151447be3f1a

Having two versions of NAV on single computer

Two Versions of Navision On Same Computer
http://msnavarena.blogspot.com/2007/05/two-versions-of-navision-on-same.html

CONFIRMED! NAV SP0 and SP3 cannot co-exist using setup/installation procedure

Note to self:
Copying CLIENT folder seems to have side-effect:
- Windows authentication won't work
- License file need to be RE-selected to remove "license expired" message
Plus, database users must be given db_owner database role, otherwise they will get strange error such no permission to read G/L Setup table, etc

Open database created with SQL Option in Native client (fin.exe)

Using Native client, create an empty database
Using SQL Option, create NAV backup of the database (NOT SQL backup!)
Then restore it in Native client
As soon as the restore finished, don't forget to check (and create, if necessary) database login(s)

NAV SP 3 on Windows 7?

Navision 4.0 SP3 compatibility with windows 7?

Windows 7 - Is Navision 4.0 compatible?
