Hello ,

1. Make sure the firewall is disabled or that port 4747 is allowed
2. Make the service account used has the appropriate permissions.
3. Try using the IP of the QlikView server.
4. Try using " Alternate Identity"

@ggphilips In addition to Ray's troubleshooting steps; please note that both Qlikview Server and Desktop should be running the same version. Mixed version is know to issues.
