Service not started: HttpListener error

Anonymous — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hello,

We are performing a DRP test on a QlikView Server 11.2 SR5 (without Publisher), .NET 4.5.

On "normal" server, everything was working.

Production server has been shut down and DRP server have been started.

The DNS name of the second server is change with the good alias.

Only QlikView Server Service is started.

Other services has the same error:

Service cannot be started. System.Net.HttpListenerException (0x80004005): The format of the specified network name is invalid

at System.Net.HttpListener.AddAllPrefixes()

at System.Net.HttpListener.Start()

at QlikView.AccessPoint.HttpServiceComponent.CreateAndStartHttpListener()

at QlikView.AccessPoint.HttpServiceComponent.Init(String[] args)

at QlikView.AccessPoint.HttpServiceComponent.Start(String[] args)

at QlikView.AccessPoint.AccessPointServer.OnStart(String[] args)

at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.ServiceQueuedMainCallback(Object state)

In configuration files (c:\ProgramData\QlikTech...) there is no reference to IP address.

Does anybody know this error?

Thanks

Vincent
