How to set-up QlikView Document Administration

[#1]

Hello,

I need to give user access to the QEMC (QMC). I found and followed this procedure How to set-up QlikView Document Administration, but was unsuccesful.

Here is a screen shot of my user access without doing anything:

Here are a screen shots of my user access after having followed the procedure How to set-up QlikView Document Administration:

What seems really odd to me is that I even don't see the green gear with QDS@hostname like when I am connected with my admin access (see below screenshot). I only see "No tasks to display".

Has anyone an idea of what I missed ?

Thanks in advance

Have a nice day

You have sure he logged off and logged in back? (It have to end the current session on network)

Hello Arthur,

Yes the user have logged off twice (QlikView and Windows)

For my tests, I use a browser configured to clean all history and cache when it is closed and when I manage Windows ACLs I always log off the user from Windows session.

So you get in as a Document Administrator (only two tabs in QMC which is correct) but you cannot access any documents to administrate? Did you define Source folders (QMC->System->Setup->Distribution Service->Select yours->General->Source Folders) and assign specific document administrators like yourself to these folders? Are there any documents in these newly created source folders?

Hello Peter,

Sorry to answer so lately.....

Yes, I have defined a Source Folder in (QMC->System->Setup->Distribution Service->Select yours->General->Source Folders) and I have given access to the local group "QlikView Document Administrators".

Yes, there are documents in this specific folder.

I also do the same in:

- QMC->System->Setup->QlikView Servers->Select yours->Folders  (creation of a folder)

- QMC->System->Setup->QlikView Servers->Select yours->Folder Access (assign the local group "QlikView Document Administrators")

I still can't see any documents.

Thanks for helping

Hi,

Try to restart QMC

Hello Gabriel,

I restarted all services of the QlikView server in this order.

Stop order: QlikView WebServer, QlikView Distribution Service, QlikView Management Service, QlikView Server and QlikView Directory Service Connector

Start order: QlikView Directory Service Connector, QlikView Distribution Service, QlikView Management Service, QlikView Server and QlikView WebServer

I also use these orders when doing my everyday backup.

No changes for my user access to the QEMC.

Thanks for helping.

Hi,

Just checking I know you would have thought about this.

Assuming the user is part of the admin group?

[#9]

Hello Gabriel,

The user is a member of the "QlikView Documents Administrators" group I created.

Hi,

one more option is to remove the user from the group and add user back. It's not clear what's happening there.
