Here in the error message it looks like he is telling me about a problem when trying to connect on port 1423 but I checked with my network admin and no attempts to connect on port 1423 are registered.&nbsp;</P><P>My Essbase administrator doesn't know what could be missing because this is supposed to be our first connection from Qlik Sense to Essbase.&nbsp;</P><P>Could anybody could help me with this, please? Are there special configurations required that should be created on Essbase server side for this connection?</P> Thu, 23 Dec 2021 13:39:30 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/Connectivity-Data-Prep/Cannot-connect-to-Essbase-Server-quot-name-quot-Network-Error/m-p/1758199#M5530 GrzegorzJudycki 2021-12-23T13:39:30Z https://community.qlik.com/t5/Connectivity-Data-Prep/Cannot-connect-to-Essbase-Server-quot-name-quot-Network-Error/m-p/1758441#M5533 <P>Hello,&nbsp;</P><P>My problem was solved.
