OLATION Server - Azure Entra Security - Regasm AzureActiveDirectory.dll


This article is related to a machine running the OLATION Server Service which is integrated to Azure Entra ID or Azure Active Directory.  In some situations the DLL which allows OLATION to communicate to the cloud Azure Entra ID server may require a manual registration to be performed. 


This solution resolved a situation where OLATION security rules were defined using Azure Entra Groups and when a user within those groups tried to connect to the OLATION Database they were not recognized as a user.


Follow the steps below to manually register the AzureActiveDirectory.dll:


  • Open CMD as administrator
  • Type "cd C:\Program Files\Olation" and hit enter
  • Copy and Paste the following into CMD and hit enter: "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\regasm AzureActiveDirectory.dll /Codebase"
  • Restart the OLATION Service
