This scenario installs the following components:

• Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components
  
• Microsoft Dynamics NAV Windows client
  
• Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server
  
• SQL Server Database Components
  
• Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server Administration Tool
  
• Development Environment (C/SIDE)
  
• CRONUS International Ltd. demonstration database, including a demo license.
  For information about what you can do with this license, see Properties of the Demo License.
  

This scenario uses the default setting of the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Setup program, which includes the following:

• Windows authentication is configured for authenticating users who try to open the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client.
  
• Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server configuration:
  
  • Service instance: DynamicsNAV71
    
  • Client service port: 7046
    
  • SOAP web services port: 7047
    
  • OData web services port: 7048
    
• Microsoft Dynamics NAV database components configuration:
  
  • Service instance: NAVDEMO
    
  • Database: Demo Database NAV (7-1)
    
• NETWORK SERVICE account is used as the service account for Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server and Microsoft Dynamics NAV database.
  

1. Get access to the Microsoft Dynamics NAV installation media. For example, this could be a DVD or network drive that contains the Microsoft Dynamics NAV installation files.

2. Make sure that the computer meets the hardware and software requirements.

   For more information, see System Requirements for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 R2.

3. Install Internet Information Services 7.0 or Internet Information Services 8.0.

   For more information, see How to: Install and Configure Internet Information Services for Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Client.

   Note
   Instead of installing and configuring Internet Information Services (IIS) manually, you can use Microsoft Dynamics NAV Setup to install IIS and enable the required features. If IIS is already installed, then Setup will enable any required features that are not currently enabled.

4. Determine which HTTP port to use for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client connection and create an inbound for the port in Windows Firewall according to the following guidelines:

   • Microsoft Dynamics NAV Setup will create a website on IIS for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client. During Setup, you will have to choose the port to use for the site. The default port that is used in Microsoft Dynamics NAV Setup is port 8080. If you are not sure of which port to use, then use the default port.
     
   • If your computer is running Windows 7 or Windows 8, then you have to create an inbound rule that allows communication on the port.
     For information about how to create an inbound rule, see How to: Create an Inbound Rule in Windows Firewall for the Port of Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Client.
     
   • If your computer is running Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2012, then an inbound rule is already created and no action is required.
     

1. From the Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 installation media, run the setup.exe file to start Microsoft Dynamics NAV Setup Wizard.

6. On the Maintenance page, choose Add or remove components.

7. On the Customize the Installation page, choose the box next to Web Server Components, choose Run from My Computer, and then choose Next.

8. On the Specify Parameters page, under Web Server Components, set the Port parameter to the TCP/IP port to use for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client connection or use the default port 8080.

9. Set the Install IIS prerequisites parameter to Install.

   This enables the IIS features that are required for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client on the computer. For more information about this parameter, see Using Microsoft Dynamics NAV Setup to Install IIS Features.

10. Choose the Apply button.

    The installation starts.

11. When the installation is complete, choose the Close button.

The following elements of the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client have been added to your computer:

• A Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client button on the Start menu.
  
• A web server instance for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client is installed on IIS. The web server instance includes a virtual directory and application for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client that has the alias DynamicsNav71\WebClient.
  

  Note
  The DynamicsNAV71 alias matches the name of the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server instance that was also created.

• To open the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client from the computer where you installed Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 R2, on the Start menu, choose All Programs, and then choose Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 Web Client.

• To open the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client from other devices on the network, open an Internet browser, and type the following URL in the address box:

  http://ComputerName:PortNumber/DynamicsNAV71/WebClient

  • Substitute ComputerName with the name of the computer where you installed Microsoft Dynamics NAV. If you are working on the computer where you installed Microsoft Dynamics NAV, then you can use localhost.
    
  • Substitute PortNumber with the port that you configured for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components during Setup.
    For example, if the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components is installed on port 8080, then you can use the following URL:
    http://localhost:8080/DynamicsNAV71/WebClient
    

  For a list of supported devices and browsers, see System Requirements for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 R2.

Note
If you get an error and the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client does not open, then see Troubleshooting the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Client Installation to try to resolve the problem.
