Nprinting Service Account

lrobin_klesia — Mon, 09 Dec 2019 08:13:21 GMT

Hi all,
I need to prepare a demonstration of Qlik Sense and NPrinting.
I installed Qlik Sense on an Azure Cloud VM with the following OS : Microsoft Windows Server 2016 DataCenter. Everything works fine.
Before installing NPrinting Server and NPrinting Engine on the same VM, I have checked the system requirements. One of them is that the Qlik Nprinting services must be run by a "domain user".
What if the nprinting service account is a local account and not a domain account, like for Qlik Sense ? There is no active directory on my Azure VM.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

About installing Qlik Sense and Qlik NPrinting on the same VM refer to https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/November2019/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/Installing-nprinting-sense-single-computer.htm. It is not supported and it could generate issues.

The Windows user must be a domain user to be able to authenticate on Qlik Sense. Refer to https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/November2019/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/User-accounts.htm#anchor-2

Best Regards,

Ruggero
