Browser authentication

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have a QV server installation: the browser authentication doesn't work anymore with the machines with Windows 7 and Windows 8 (it still works with Windows XP); the only recognized account is the administrator one...all the others are rejected.

I didn't make any architectural modification in the mean time, obvioulsy...

I suppose the behavior is caused by an automatic Windows patch: has anybody the same problem?

Thks.

Hi,

I am not sure what you mean by "browser authentication doesn't work anymore". Are you saying it is asking for a username and password or it is not and you want it to?

Yep, it's asking for user and pwd but it doesn't recognize them when I tape them, so it asks for them again, and again, and again...

The same credentials inserted into an XP machine are accepted.

This behavior is for any credentials exept for the administrator one.

Pls note that if I set on QV console the "alternate login page (web form)" property, instead of the "default login page (browser autontication)" one, the same credentials work properly also in 7/8 machine and not only in the XP ones.

Can you make sure that in IIS that you have only Windows authentication enable for the QlikView and AvAjaxZfc virtual folders?

Shiva, would u mind to explain me step-by-step how can I check the parameters you tell about in paragraphs 1 and 2?

3. No error happens when I input the credentials: it simply ask me for them again 😞
