Frequently Asked Questions / Anveo Mobile App / App shows “No users found.” on first login.

App shows “No users found.” on first login.

Symptom

On your first login with your mobile device, Anveo Mobile App shows an error message No users found.

Cause

Anveo Server does not have any information on Anveo Mobile App users. This is caused by a configuration problem.

Anveo Server cannot communicate with Dynamics web service to ask for users because of different reasons:

  • wrong Dynamics Web Service URL
  • a firewall setting that denies access from Anveo Server to Dynamics web service
  • wrong username and password of Dynamics user that is used in Anveo Server configuration file.
  • default company is wrong or user has not enough NAV permission to access this company.
  • Web service is not active for codeunits Task_Communication or Web_Communication.
  • Web service does not allow NTLM.
  • Because of different character sets, sometimes special characters are not allowed in passwords. Use basic characters only.
  • Server or user logging is turned on, but logging folder does not exists or does not have sufficient permissions.

Solution

Check the reason of a communication problem is the Anveo Server Log file.
You will find this file in folder \Transfer\ANVEOServiceTierLog
Search for “SyncAllAnveoUsers automatically was not successful Exception:
