MSDYN365BC - Publish Extension Error - NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy is enabled and must be turned off.

Hi Readers,

I hope till this time everyone would have tried creating and publishing extension on Business Central
on-Prem Version.

If you haven't then start and learn how to do that. If you already started doing this you might be getting an error message while publishing extension.

In this article, we will discuss how to fix NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy issue.


Error Message - 

The request for path /DynamicsNAV130/dev/metadata failed with code InternalServerError.
Reason: NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy is enabled and must be turned off in the Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Server.exe.config file.



To Fix this issue - 

1. Open Notepad as Administrator. 
     Navigate to C:\WINDOWS\system32.
     Right click on Notepad and select Run as administrator.
   

2. Open "Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Server.exe" file from Service Folder as shown below.


3. Change the NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy parameter from true to false. Save the file.

4. Restart NAV Service.

5. Try publishing extension again, it should get published successfully.


Hope you find the information useful.
