Assign Named User CAL to Anonymous User ?

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hello Community!

I'm just trying to publish a document in order to anonymous users can access to it using Ajax outside the domain, but always get the same message:

Access denied! The server (QVS) has no USER CAL for your account. Please contact your system administrator!

The Server Settings are:

1.- En QEMC > System > Licenses > QVS@localhost > Client Access Licenses (CALs) > General Allow license lease and Allow dynamic CAL assignment checked.

2.- En QEMC > System > Setup > Qlikview Web Servers > AccessPoint > Authentication: Never.

3.- En QEMC > System > Setup > Qlikview Web Servers > AccessPoint > Ajax: Always Anonyous, Prohibit Authentication and Prohibit machine Id checked.

4.- En QEMC > System > Setup > QlikView Server > Security > Authentication > Allow Anonymous (Anonymous Account: On Domain) and Authorization > DMS Authorization.

5.- En QEMC > Documents > User Documents > Authorization. Added Anonymous for the document.

Any suggestions?

Regards,

Mario

Hi Mario,

everybody who wants to look at your QV-Doc is a QV-User. It is not depending of which type of client he is using (win, ajax, plugin). So check out, if you have enough free user cals, as I suppose this is rather a licence issue, not a technical thing.

Thx Roland! I've contacted Qlik support and they told me what you said: it's a license issue. Anonymous user can't be deployed with a Named CAL, only Session or Usage CAL.

Regards!

Also note that session cal is suported in EnterpriseEdition
