Login Prompt

Hello ,

We have recently installed 11 SR1 server and replicated all the settings the same way as we had in our old server that hosted SR 10 SR 4.

Now, what we are trying to do is embed the direct link to the qvw using IE plugin in Sharepoint rather than having the user go to the Accesspoint home page.

However, whenever we run that URL in the browser, we get a login prompt. If we go through the Accesspoint and click on the application, we do not get the login prompt.URL for the Ajax client has no issues as well.

For instance, if we run the following URL in IE, we get the login prompt:

http://<servername>/QvAJAXZfc/AccessPoint.aspx?open=&id=QVS@srv-***%7C<Foldername>/<appname>.qvw&client=Plugin

I have also observed that the URL changes to:

http://<servername>/qlikview/login.htm?back=/QvAJAXZfc/AccessPoint.aspx%3Fopen%3D%26id%3DQVS@srv-***%257C<Foldername>/<appname>.qvw%26client%3DPlugin

So the login part gets added for some reason.

I have gone through previous forums and have tried all that has been suggested.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Amit

Hello All,

This is likely to be a known bug 47002 and should be resolved in V11 SR2.

There is a custom patch available if you request it from QlikTech Support.

Try:

http://<servername>/QVAJAXZfc/AccessPoint.aspx?open=&id=QVS@srv-***%7C<Foldername>/<appname>.qvw&client=Plugin

Note that the little v in QvAJAXZfc is now a capital V.

Thie worked for us moving from v9 to v10 - maybe it'll work again?

Sorry mate. That did it for us.

Believe the likely issue may be your QVServer resource Security tab settings under the Client Security section being set to Allow Anonymous instead of Prohibit Anonymous.  If you do have Prohibit Anonymous set, something is preventing the client from automatically passing the logged on user credentials from the workstation to the QVServer.

The other thing to check would be the virtual directory security settings for the QvPlugin directory if you are using IIS as your web server, that will need to be locked down to Windows Authentication as well to ensure when we make the call through that directory, the web server is sending the user credentials through to the QVServer.


Hopefully one of the above will get you working properly.

Update from Support:

There has been a bug log on using the direct URL to a document. It only fails with the plugin. The BugID is 47002.

Hello All,

I've also had the same problem and have suggested 2 workarounds for mycustomer.

1. Use the AJAX method instead

2. Direct users to the AccessPoint first, and allow them to click the icon to load a document as needed.

Both methods seem to work on my V11 test system and don’t give you thisextra logon prompt.

We have the same problem on QV 11. We are using QV Web Server and not IIS. I can see that credentials from Share Point CFA are passed as, when the QV login screen pops up, I dont enter credentials second time and I just hit submit and it takes me to the document. I've also observed that my original link,

http://<servername>/QvAJAXZfc/AccessPoint.aspx?open=&id=QVS@srv-***%7C<Foldername>/<appname>.qvw&cli...

changes to

http://<servername>/qlikview/login.htm?back=/QvAJAXZfc/AccessPoint.aspx%3Fopen%3D%26id%3DQVS@srv-***...

and I get QV login prompt. As I mentioned I don't enter anything here and just click on submit and lets me go to document. We are using QV Web Server and NOT IIS.

Security is set to : Prohibit Anonymus

and login is set to : NTLM

That is correct Peter. We were able to acquire the patch from Support and that seemed to have resolved the issue.

Thanks all for your thoughts.
