Can I Change Qlik Replicate Default URL (Hostname)?

hitlbs70 — Fri, 23 May 2025 05:27:45 GMT

The default URL to access Qlik Replicate on a Windows server is set to
https://<machine-name>/attunityreplicate.

Our customer has registered the domain
https://<domain-name>/attunityreplicate in DNS and installed an SSL certificate matching this domain on Qlik Replicate.
Access via this domain is working correctly.

However, since the default URL (https://<machine-name>/attunityreplicate) and the customer’s domain name (https://<domain-name>/attunityreplicate) differ,
web browsers display a security warning related to the SSL certificate mismatch.

Could you please confirm whether it is possible to change the default URL in Qlik Replicate from <machine-name> to <domain-name>?

Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for your response.

I have reviewed the URL you provided.

Regarding the statement:
“The issue was resolved after we updated the GlobalRepo.sqlite database, the host_configuration entry.”

Could you please clarify which specific part of the host_configuration entry was updated?
Do we need to set a value for default_ad_domain?

Also, is it safe to directly modify the GlobalRepo.sqlite database?

Thank you.

Hi @hitlbs70 ,

Please try the command below and execute it under 'Qlik Replicate Command Line' as Administrator:

repuictl -d "yourdatafolder" configuration set --address yourURLhostname

If you would like to modify it through the SQLite database, please open the GlobalRepo.sqlite. Query the 'objects' table where the type column is 'AppHostConfiguration'. You can find the host settings in the 'json' column.

Before making any changes, please be sure to do a backup.

Regards,
Desmond
