Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi All,

I access the accesspoint link http://10.16.2.17/qlikview/index.htm in mozilla . . . The link changes to http://10.16.2.17/qlikview/login2.htm

I enter the login credentials, same as the my windows credentials.

Then it prompts me for login credentials in the accesspoint again. . when i give the same credentials it says wrong id password. . . . snapshot is below

HELP . . .

The Accesspoint link works fine on IE and google chrome. .

Thanks . . . .

Regards,

Viraj

You can use Firefox, but only if you open the applications in AJAX. The IE Plugin (as the name implies) only works in Internet Explorer. Other than that, the procedure for accessing the AccessPoint is the same between Firefox and IE, with the possible exception that FF may require you to enter the login manually the first time.

Hi,

Anytime you open a document NOT using QlikView Desktop or Internet Explorer plugin, the document is open in Ajax. By the way, what type of directory are you using? Active Directory with NTLM authentication? QMS with Custom Directory? Custom directory, by default, comes with the prefix so you only need to use USERNAME instead of DOMAIN\USERNAME.

Hope that helps.

I have the authentication type as Ntlm. . . not sure on active directory. . .

Where to check it?

And this a demo application I have made with no security/data reduction options. . .

I just want the client to see the application with my credentials. . . IN MOZILLA . .

thanks . . .

Hi,

Can you open the document with the IE Plugin using the same username and password? Does it works in Internet Explorer opening the document as Full Browser Version (Ajax)?

Regards.

Hi,

I've just tested it on Firefox running on Windows 7 and works just fine, prompting for username and password, then showing the AccessPoint. Check in the QMC, System, Setup, QlikView Webservers, Authentication tab on the right, Authentication: "Always", Type: NTLM, "Login Address": "Default Login Page".

Hope that helps.

Hi. This could be my first post out here. If you have checked NTLM, then tell me are your Qlikview services using domain credentials to start ?

You may be using NTLM and browser authentication method. If thats the case you have to login into your system first using your domain credentials whose access is provided on qlikview server. Then make following changes in your IE browser.

Click on Tools / Internet Options / Security Tab / Click on Internet and then on Custom Level. Scroll to end of list and select "Automatic logon using current username and password". Save settings and then try.

If you do not want to go through all the above, then on Qlikview server / Web Server / authentication tab, change login type and NTLM and select 'Alternate Login Page'. You will be displayed a login page irrelevant of login on your desktop / laptop.

IE and Chrome browsers have the ability to perform browser based authentication. Chrome shares IE settings in ‘under hood’. I suggest you change to NTLM authentication and in login address use ‘Alternate Login Page (web address)’. After making the above changes (check screenshot), use following URL to login.

http://localhost/qlikview/login2.htm

Substitute localhost with your IP address.
