Hi,

Please check weather "Lef" file is created or not

path:c:\Programdata\QlikTech

if not created then create manually .txt file and copy the lef content.

Dear Xiao,

Make sure those Qlikview services are "log on as" service account ( domain account or local account is fine) and that service account is part of the Administrator groups and Qlikview administator group.

Your QVS isn't licensed. Please make sure you are entering the correct license and control number. Please make sure the Server\Computer Name and the Net Bios names are the same. Make sure you are entering the correct user name and password for the service account. Make sure the internet is up and running. Make sure you have the correct ports open also.

Hi,

What I see is your server still unlicensed.

Can you post snapshot of QEMC--> System --> License --> QlikviewServer.

Other services will get connected only when your QVS is licensed. Please share us the response when applying your license.

Xiao,

I apologize guys, but I have to disagree, if other services are down that means the issue is something different than applying the license. If the license was the problem maker, we should only see the "warning" label for QVS and the other services should be on "play / running" mode.

Few things to check:

1- Make sure that the service account is part of the Administrators group and Qlikview Administrators.

2- Make sure we you added the service account to those groups, to reboot the machine. Some machines due to group policies, it requires a machine reboot to take effect the rights changes.

3-DNS problem, maybe the server name is causing the issue for each of the services add a new link (ex. QMC>system>select Qlikview server > you going to see on right side a link, on top and green "+" button, that will add a new link, same for the rest of the services) when you add the new link, remove only the server name and add "localhost" ( exe. qvp://<servername>/ to qvp://localhost/ or http://<servername>:4730/DSC/service to http://<localhost>:4730/DSC/service.)

Hi,

The service account has to be a member of the local Administrator Group. This is normally the issue when the DSC and QVWS will not start.
