NPrinting Connection QlikView Server

[berndjaegle]

Hi guys,

The connection from NPrinting fails to QlikView Server.

We have installed NPrinting17 on a separate Server.

The User can open the QlikView document in the InternetExplorer on the NPrinting Server.

Also tried with giving the Authentication information. But same error.

Connection to QlikSense Cluster works fine.

Hope to get some help here.

BR,

Bernd

Connection Problem exists to the QlikView Server.

QlikSense works fine.

Hi,

Your connection string when you create connection is wrong - this is why it is not working for you.

look at this topic to understand how to create qvp connection:

Nprinting 17 server connection to a qvw

follow the steps from there.

Hight level instructions are that you:

• need to have qlikview desktop installed on nprintign engine machine
• need to have UserCal license lease to this service account
• need to have access to QlikVIew server - this can be tested by opening any qvw file using desktop client and "open in the server" functionality
• accont needs to belong to QlikView Administrator group on QlikVIew server as well as Local Administrator

other details in URL i have provided above

cheers

I have an idea now...

QlikView and NPrinting are on different servers ...BUT

we use the same user for NPrinting service as for the QlikView Service.

Could this be the issue?

Please verify!

What can we do? Start installation all over again?

Thanks,

Bernd

This definitely can be a problem. Acount needs to be dedicated as i mentioned in attache previously link.

ALthough by looking at your connection path it looked not right to me... you have  ‘/‘ instead of ’\’..... but i may be wrong... worth checking using the instructions also from url link

‌just create dedicated domain account for Nprinting, change them accordingly in services settings, restart services, allocate qlikview license to it and add it to all required groups and thats it. you do not have to re-install anything

cheers

Will try with a different user. But have to create it first.

Think '/' is OK. When using '\'

the message ''Invalid document path" is shown immediately.

Thnx,
