Doc-admin acccess terribly slow?

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

Does anybody have experience with the Doc-Admin concept?

We are operating a multi-project platform and give Doc-Admin rights to some users for their projects to allow self-service administration of their documents on the server. Unfortunately we experience that using the QEMC on QlikView (11.20.12904.0) is terribly slow. Any action with the mouse takes up to 10-20 seconds to take effect, whereas with full admin rights the QEMC is quite responsive.

Note that the QEMC , sever and publisher are running on 3 physically separated machines witch each >50GB RAM and 8 cores. However we doubt that connectivity is an issue as the normal admin access works fine.

Any idea what the problem might be or where to look for tuning issues?

Hi Michael

There is the possibility to cache Doc-Admin data in QEMC.

Check the following values in QVManagementService.exe.config located in [InstallDir]\QlikView\Management Service:

DocumentFolderAdminCacheEnabled
DocumentFolderAdminCacheExpiryMinutes

Also if you don't use cross domain users, set setting DocumentFolderAdminUseXDomain to false. This will improve performance significantly in certain environments.

Hope this helps.

Hi Michael,

maybe this is helpful: QMC slow for Document Administrators primarily.

Did it work for you?

Are you running SQL or XML as QVPR database?

Clustered Publisher?

what does QVPR stand for? But anyhow...I think we use XML only so far and no clusters.

Within the next weeks we will move to a clustered architecture with 3 servers and 2 publishers.

Do you know any negative impact?

Jerry,

Can you please explain me more on Cluster does in QlikView?

QVPR is the Publishers database.

My client is running a similar setup, two Publisher Machines clustered. Works fine, although strange response time sometimes.
