Cannot create new BC container with custom server instance name #3569

Closed ernestasjuska closed 5 months ago

ernestasjuska commented 5 months ago

Hello,

In our company we use a shared development server with containers that published on a different ports. To differentiate containers we are using custom server instance names as suggested in https://github.com/microsoft/navcontainerhelper/issues/1429#issuecomment-721154669.

To set custom server instance name we use the following script (commenting out '-myscripts' removes the error):

$artifactUrl2 = Get-BCArtifactUrl -type OnPrem -country w1 -version 24
$ServerInstance = 'bc123'
New-BcContainer `
     -accept_eula -containerName $ServerInstance `
     -artifactUrl $artifactUrl2 `
     -myscripts @(
         @{
             'ServiceSettings.ps1' = @"
 `$NavServiceName = 'MicrosoftDynamicsNavServer`$$ServerInstance'
 `$WebServerInstance = '$ServerInstance'
 `$ServerInstance = '$ServerInstance'
"@
         } ) `
     -auth NavUserPassword `
     -Credential (New-Object -TypeName pscredential -ArgumentList 'user', ('Password1.' | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force))

BC versions older than 24 show different error but in the same place:

Starting Business Central Service Tier
Importing license file
There was no endpoint listening at http://localhost:7086/bc123/ManagementServicePs/Service.svc that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.

Thanks.

You should use traefik for this - I don't think you will be able to make this work without.

ernestasjuska commented 5 months ago

I see, thank you.

Traefik does not work for us. We use our AD users for containers and Windows auth only works Traefik "kind of" - there annoying problems, e.g. one user seeing other user's web client, because Traefik ends up using the same connection for both users and IIS does not distinguish beween the two.

Also, Traefik that comes with BcContainerHelper is outdated.

freddydk commented 5 months ago

Yeah, traefik was an open source contribution from a partner - I do not have the time nor insight to upgrade. It works (with username/password) - containers doesn't really work well with windows auth anyway.

The only alternative (I think) would be to publish different port on the host based on which container it is (which I guess is what you are doing)
