AccessPoint URL

[#1]

Hello,

My URL for access point is something like:

http://qv.mydomain.com/qlikview/

I'ld like to make it simplier with something like:

http://qv.mydomain.com

I went in the QEMC, to the "Web" tab and changed "QLIKVIEW" to "" (empty).

When I tried to restart the service, it wont restart.

I've found the config file, and replaced "" by "QLIKVIEW" --> service can restart.

I thought that I can't remove "QLIKVIEW", but I can add a new redirection. But when I add a redirection, service don't restart.

1. How can I manage to have

http://qv.mydomain.com

as access point URL?

2. Why the hell is there some modifiable parameters in the QEMC where, when changed, make the service ineffective?

I'm using QV server v11 SR 2 with QV web server.

Keep the default and add another empty one pointing to C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web then restart all your QV services

I tried this, but the QVWS don't want to restart whith this configuration, even with a full reboot of the server.

Are you using IIS on this server?

Any message?

Please check your Event Viewer

I made this change:

--> apply

--> restart the service

--> Message box:

The QlikView Webserver service on Local Computer started and then stopped.

Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other service or programs.

--> restart the server: service still down

Event viewer:

Service cannot be started. System.Net.HttpListenerException (0x80004005): Access is denied

   at System.Net.HttpListener.AddAllPrefixes()

   at System.Net.HttpListener.Start()

   at QlikView.AccessPoint.HttpServiceComponent.CreateAndStartHttpListener()

   at QlikView.AccessPoint.AccessPointServer.OnStart(String[] args)

   at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.ServiceQueuedMainCallback(Object state)

As the service is now down, I remove with Notepad the

      <Folder>

        <Name />

        <Path>C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web</Path>

      </Folder>

in the C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\WebServer\config.xml file, then restart the service --> it's all good, service starts.

I tried with

      <Folder>

        <Name>FOOBAR</Name>

        <Path>C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web</Path>

      </Folder>

and the service doesn't start either.

I'm not using IIS because

I'm using QV server v11 SR 2 with QV web server.

Very weird, I should envolve QlikTech Support Staff

Did You try to modify

      <Folder>

        <Name />

        <Path>C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web</Path>

      </Folder>

into

    <Folder>

        <Name></Name>

        <Path>C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web</Path>

      </Folder>

Bill - if using IIS, how does one accomplish modifying the AccessPoint URL to be just the servername without the /qlikview? Thanks
