Server not found when installing Qlikview Server

Not able to set Logon Information when installing QlikView Server. The following error is displayed when clicking Next:

Server not found. Verify that the specified server exists. The servername can not be empty.

This can be caused by:

The Computer Browser service is not enabled
A firewall is configured without an exception for the Computer Browser Service
NetBIOS over TCP/IP is not enabled on the machine
If no master browser server is configured on the network
If broadcast traffic is disabled on the network

Resolution:

Choose I want to specify the account to be used for the services later to prevent the possible root causes from affecting the installation.
Manually add the desired Service Account to the QlikView Administrators group created by the install.
Input the Username and Password in the Windows Service Console after the installation. (Note: if you put the Service Account and Password in the dialog and then check the I want to specify the account to be used for the services later, the Service Account and Password will be populated for you in the Services Applet.)
Ensure the Service Account gets the Logon as a Service right in the Local Security Policies. (Note: When you set things in the Services Applet, this should occur automatically.)
