[Bug]: Creating Nav 2017 containers hangs on Export Objects #4187

Description

@JanSkrubbeltrangEcit

BCContainerhelper version

BcContainerHelper version 6.1.14

Describe the issue

Running the following command:

New-NavContainer -accept_eula -accept_outdated -containerName NAV2017 -artifactUrl (Get-NavArtifactUrl -nav 2017 -country DK) -updateHosts -includeCSide -licenseFile license.flf -Auth UserPassword

The container is build and it is operational. At the end it tries to export objects and just hangs on:

Export Objects to C:\ProgramData\BcContainerHelper\Extensions\Original-10.0.30699.0-dk\objects.txt (container path)

I have left it open for hours and no progress. I can access the Windows Client through the link on desktop but the Development enviroment fails to open database due to ODBC errror.

Command or script used to produce the issue

New-NavContainer -accept_eula -accept_outdated -containerName NAV2017 -artifactUrl (Get-NavArtifactUrl -nav 2017 -country DK) -updateHosts -includeCSide -licenseFile license.flf -Auth UserPassword
