AccessPoint URL

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hello,

My URL for access point is something like:

http://qv.mydomain.com/qlikview/

I'ld like to make it simplier with something like:

http://qv.mydomain.com

I went in the QEMC, to the "Web" tab and changed "QLIKVIEW" to "" (empty).

When I tried to restart the service, it wont restart.

I've found the config file, and replaced "" by "QLIKVIEW" --> service can restart.

I thought that I can't remove "QLIKVIEW", but I can add a new redirection. But when I add a redirection, service don't restart.

1. How can I manage to have

http://qv.mydomain.com

as access point URL?

2. Why the hell is there some modifiable parameters in the QEMC where, when changed, make the service ineffective?

I'm using QV server v11 SR 2 with QV web server.

Keep the default and add another empty one pointing to C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web then restart all your QV services

I tried this, but the QVWS don't want to restart whith this configuration, even with a full reboot of the server.

Are you using IIS on this server?

I made this change:

--> apply

--> restart the service

--> Message box:

The QlikView Webserver service on Local Computer started and then stopped.
Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other service or programs.

--> restart the server: service still down

Event viewer:

Service cannot be started. System.Net.HttpListenerException (0x80004005): Access is denied
   at System.Net.HttpListener.AddAllPrefixes()
   at System.Net.HttpListener.Start()
   at QlikView.AccessPoint.HttpServiceComponent.CreateAndStartHttpListener()
   at QlikView.AccessPoint.HttpServiceComponent.Init(String[] args)
   at QlikView.AccessPoint.HttpServiceComponent.Start(String[] args)
   at QlikView.AccessPoint.AccessPointServer.OnStart(String[] args)
   at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.ServiceQueuedMainCallback(Object state)

As the service is now down, I remove with Notepad the

      <Folder>
        <Name />
        <Path>C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web</Path>
      </Folder>

in the C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\WebServer\config.xml file, then restart the service --> it's all good, service starts.

I tried with

      <Folder>
        <Name>FOOBAR</Name>
        <Path>C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web</Path>
      </Folder>

and the service doesn't start either.

I'm not using IIS because

I'm using QV server v11 SR 2 with QV web server.

      </Folder>

into

    <Folder>
        <Name></Name>
        <Path>C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web</Path>
      </Folder>

Bill - if using IIS, how does one accomplish modifying the AccessPoint URL to be just the servername without the /qlikview? Thanks

Hi Scott,

You will have to setup an Http redirect to do that.

Searched and search and finally found out how to do this thanks to Sokkorn Cheav

to change your url from http://someserver/qlikview

to http://someserver/

in the iisStart.htm

Open notepad as administrator then open c:\inetpub\wwwroot\iisStart.htm as all files

add to top of page

document.location="/qlikview/";

</script>

then save

Happy days
