We are currently using DMS with Custom Directory, so we need to use the login.htm as the login page. But, when the user key in the wrong username/password, there is no error message or prompt. Is it possible to add an error message to the login page? If yes, how?</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205618#M1284765 2026-01-26T18:19:17Z Login.htm - Error message for wrong password/username https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205619#M1284766 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi,</P><P>I don't really have an answer to your question, but I remember I had an issue with login.htm.</P><P>I was like you using DMS with Custom Directory, and I didn't manage to connect with my username and password.</P><P>I add the prefix CUSTOM\ to the username and then it worked.</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 29 Jun 2010 16:00:24 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205619#M1284766 2010-06-29T16:00:24Z Login.htm - Error message for wrong password/username https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205620#M1284767 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Chirstophe,</P><P>Yup... the user did key in the wrong username. But I want error message to be displayed when the wrong username is entered. Currently the login page will do nothing (not even refresh) when the user key in the wrong username. This make the user feels that the login page is not working instead of knowing that they typed in the wrong username/password.</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 29 Jun 2010 16:18:07 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205620#M1284767 2010-06-29T16:18:07Z Login.htm - Error message for wrong password/username https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205621#M1284768 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Maybe add a "Trouble login in please contact support....." line at the footer of login.htm ?</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 02 Jul 2010 14:27:33 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205621#M1284768 2010-07-02T14:27:33Z Login.htm - Error message for wrong password/username https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Login-htm-Error-message-for-wrong-password-username/m-p/205622#M1284769 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi cjwhit,</P><P>Thanks for the suggestion.</P><P>I think an error message would be better because typing a wrong username/password is something that can be fixed by the user before contacting support.
