incomplete config.xml QV web server, start fails

rbecher — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hello,

after installation of QVS the config.xml is incomplete:

<Config>
 <Port>81</Port>
 <HttpsPort>-1</HttpsPort>
 <TunnelHost>localhost</TunnelHost>
 <Synchronous>False</Synchronous>
 <ConfigUrl>http://_:4750/qvws.asmx</ConfigUrl>
</Config>

The log says:

23.11.2009 13:30:21.5781250 Error System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
 at QlikView.WebServer.QvWebServerConfig.WriteXml(XmlWriter writer, Boolean encrypt)
 at QlikView.WebServer.Settings.SaveConfigData(QvWebServerConfig data)
 at QlikView.WebServer.Settings.Update(QvWebServerConfig data)
 at QlikView.WebServer.HttpServiceComponent.Init(String[] args)
 at QlikView.WebServer.HttpServiceComponent.Start(String[] args)

Can someone please post a complete config.xml.

Stop QVWS, rename or remove the config.xml and restart QVWS. This should generate a new, fresh config.xml
