AccessPoint Issue using Reverse Proxy

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Team --

We have exposed QlikView over the internet via Reverse Proxy.

We have used a single machine configuration primarily for demo purposes i.e.we have installed all the Qlikview components as well as IIS on the same server.

While accessing the Access Point URL internally within the corporate network, we are able to see the Qlikview Reports published on the server.

However while accessing the same from internet, I can see the Accesspoint web site but it hangs with the content loading message.

We are unable to resolve this issue. It would be great if we could get any pointers to help resolve this issue.

Thanks.

Hi Joseph,

I don't know a lot about RP(Reverse Proxy), but the hanging with content loading is cause by your user information isn't being passed. I know that there is a RP setting to make RP do this.

Thanks Bill, do you know the actual setting in RP to help resolve this issue. Is this due to a double hop problem or perhaps related to Kerberos on the internet facing web server ?

I read somewhere that Reverse Proxy settings by default authenticate using a hash of the password, hence the first server can authenticate the user against Active Directory, but cannot reuse the same credentials to impersonate the user to the actual internal IIS web server where Qlikview is hosted.

It would be great if anyone could provide some pointers in help resolving this issue.

Thanks

Hi ,

Is your problem soveld? if so, please share with me.. as

I am very new to QlikView(I dont even know anyhting), but I got the requirement that, I need to access reports in QlikView. Users will login into my java based portal application, as soon as userlogged in, user will be authenticated and SSO token will be created.

With SSO token, what is the best way to access QlikView without validating/authenticating user credentials.

And one more thing is, our QlikView server sits on AWS.

Please reply me,a s I dont have much for this, hence requesting the help.

Thanks,

Ram

Hi Bill,

I have gone through the document, but didnt get clear picture for my issue.

I want to know exactly that, how to access any document/url in Qlikview with SSO token?

Could you throw me some light on that clearly..

Thanks,
Ram

Hi Joseph,

We are facing this issue too.

We implemented authentication with web ticket and it was working before exposing the server via Reversed Proxy.

Thanks,

Arthur

Just wanted to bump this thread again and see if anyone has found a solution to the issue, as I have a client suffering the same.

I've proven that it is not to do with the internals of QlikView, rather an IIS/Reverse Proxy issue by creating a HTML file in QvAjaxZfc that references a number of image files. Rather than asking for username and password once and then showing all images in the HTML page the IIS server prompts for user name and password for each image file.

It's something to do with how the reverse proxy handles the caching of user names and passwords, I guess.

If anyone has any insights to share it would be most useful.

Hi,

It has been a while since I have worked with Microsoft reverse proxy, but to make things work you had to set it up for pass through authentication. I am sure this has to be done on all proxy's

Thanks Bill. I will pass this information on to the people who have the access to update the proxy, and will report back with the findings.
