How to set Home page

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi All,

Now we run into one little issue, we would like you to help us out.

Our AccessPoint home page’s url is http://qv.site.com/qlikview/index.htm .

Can we have http://qv.site.com point to the QV home page directly (ie, not have to add /qlikview/index.htm)?

As you know, we are using QV server not IIS, so how to solve it?

Thanks.

But when I type the url http://qv.site.com<http://qv.englishtown.com/>, it redirect to the IIS welcome page, not AccessPoint Page.

Hi Issac

In this case you have IIS enabled on you machine.

Try to remove iis if you are not using it.

Or else you can change the port for qlikview webserver for 80 to some another port

Hope that helps

Hi,

You can listen to that address redirect the users to the original accesspoint address.

You just need to change the config.xml file to make QlikView listen and answer to the root folder.

You need to include some lines in the config.xml file of the AccesPoint.

You will create a blank page (doesn't need to be blank...) that will redirect the user.

Please, check this thread

Look for the answer from Bjorn Wedbratt

Hope it helps,
