I tried by clicking get default but displays nothing. Path is coming blank.

I entered path manually (e.g LDAP://mydomain.com) and same error coming as i attached in screenshots.

Hi Lalit,

please check with this....

The AD Service account has to be a member of the Local Administrator group on the server. Not only a member of

"QlikView Administrators"

Hi Lalit,

Please check with this....

The account running the directory service connector (DSC) needs to be a member of the domain to have rights to query the Active Directory.

Another way, is to provide the credentials of an account that is a domain member in the logon tab for the DSC.
