Qlikview SBE: Using Local Directory

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi. We recently got our SBE licence (with 5 Named CALs).

Since SBE doesn't support DMS, we've been told to create Windows users on the server machine (svr-qview) where the QVServer is installed and then add those users in System>Setup>DSC>LocalDirectory.

But in this screen I press the + button, then the "Get default" and then I type a valid user and password in the svr-qview machine, and I get those red asterisks alerting an error.

Any help on this subject?

Thanks!

Can you post a screen shot of what you are talking about? All, you have to do is "Get Default" and nothing else.

Here it is:

The only one without asterisk is actually a user not belonging to the qview-srv machine (the machine QVS is installed on). The others are all valid users...

Ok so with the help of Bill Brit and the support team here at Argentina I finally got it:

On "Local Directory" we fill only one line and just the "Path", leaving "username" and "password" empty.

On System>Setup>QVWebServer>Authentication I use "Login", "Ntlm" and "Alternate login page".

3) Prohibit annonymous

4) Disable "Allow dynamic licence CAL assignment"

With these setting I get promted for user and password and I can enter one of the user and password of the machine QV is installed on.
