Hello,
I am beginning with the Server version of QV.
I am trying to open an application and I get the message telling me that I can't (because I don't have any license).
I have read somewhere I have to "rent" a licence using Qlikview Management Console.
I go there and look for my ID in User tab. I see my type is "Named CAL" but well, I don't know where to say that I want a license.
Can anybody help me ?
Thank you
Have a good day
Laura
Hi Laura,
First, you need communication between your computer and the QlikView Server by means of port TCP 4747, so check that your firewall allows it.
Second, open QlikView, go to Window, Start page, Open In Server, check "Show Options" and make sure those are the credentials to which the license has been assigned, then click Open and open any document you can see in the list.
That will make the QlikView Server lease you a license.

here for detail
http://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-2993
in short
open a document (in the access point, not qmc) with ie plugin (internet explorer browser)
or with qlikview desktop using open in server (start page of qlikview desktop)
I have some trouble with the access point so my only option is to open a document using open in server.
I read the documentation and If if I put qvp://localhost as in the example, it seems to work. But the applications I want to open are in another computer so I write : qvp://172.18.60.246 (the IP of this other computer)
and I get the error " Failed to reach to server 172.18.60.246: -1 Switching to HTTP tunneling Connected to Server Ok. Security access Denied"
Also when I put qvp://172.18.60.246 , Qlikview added "qvq" and I got qvp://qvq/172.18.60.246, If I dont remove this "qvq" , the error message becomes "Connected to server, Negotiations timed out"
Any idea ?
Thank you for your help
Hi,
To be able to open apps in other computer, this computer must run a QlikView Server. So the question is: is 172.18.60.246 running a valid, licensed instance of QlikView Server?
By the way, make sure both client and server are running the same version of QlikView. (e.g: 11.20 SR5 release 12235).

Hello,
Thank you for your answer. Actually, I was not trying on the right server.
If I put
qvp://localhost
*i get an error message "negotiation timed out", what does that mean ?
Isn't localhost always supposed to work ?
Hi,
Nope, "localhost" means your own computer. If you don't have QlikView Server installed onto your own computer, that will not work.
