Can't connect to Azure Server with Qlik Analytics Plugin for Visual Studio

[Anonymous]

The documentation says

Specify the following:

  Host with or without port.
http://server.domain.com:port/  

  With or without virtual proxy. 
http://server.domain.com[:port]/[VirtualProxy]

however, when I supply the web address for the Qlik Sense server I get an error message - "Can not connect to that server, check host and try again!"

I've scoured the web, tried every conceivable combination of possible entries and several settings adjustments to simply establish connectivity in order to test the plugin with no success/progress. The documentation seems to overlook via brevity the most basic step in using this tool.

Any advice/insight would be greatly appreciated.

Any thoughts?

Hi,
I suggest that you configure Qlik Sense to Allow Http (in the proxie-ports) and that you add your ip-adress and or domain to the "Websocket origin white list" (see virtual proxy-advanced) you will also need to add the external name of the azure server to the white list (azureservername.cloaudapp.net).

You will also need to configure the firewall on the Azure server, the following ports needs to be opened:

* 443 (https service port)
* 4244 (https authetication port)

* 80 (http service port)
* 4248 (http authentication port)

Last you will also need to add a user to the Azure server with the same userid and password as you have on your domain. You will now be able to connect to the server with http://azureservername.cloaudapp.net

Not only are all of these settings already in place - but your comment has no relevance regarding the root cause of the issue.

Hi,

maybe I have misunderstood you. The current version of the plugin supports NTLM authentication with the credentials of the logged on user. The configuration above is supoosed to help you connect to Azure.

​The current version of the plugin supports NTLM authentication with the credentials of the logged on user.

Please provide source for this statement.

Hi,

There is an updated version of the plugin (version 1.1.0.370) where you can supply other credentials.
This perhaps solves your problem (or some relevant problems).

I installed the new version of the plugin. The option to use alternate credentials is definitely in the right direction; however - I was not able to connect successfully.

I'll continue to investigate possible root cause/troubleshoot.

Thanks!
