Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi All,

I have a document on an external qlikview server.I setup the qlikview server and assigned the licenses and I'm able to see the document in access point.What should I do to access the document externally from anywhere outside the domain via URL.when I use

http://server/qlikview/index.htm it says page not found.Should I open any ports or something like that.thanks in advance.

This is really a job for your IT people. They will have to NAT the extral webserver name to the qlikview server that is internal in the Firewall.

How did you fix it by opening port 80?

I can ping it now, but it get an Bad gateway 502.

Ping don´t use TCP port. It uses ICMP protocol.

In order to make test, use "telnet servername port", example:

Telnet www.qliktech.com 80.

say what? I can easily ping the server.

but when im trying to get my webticket it says bad gateway?

Is it becayuse i dont specify a port in my address? eg.

should i in my script write http://100.100.100.100:8080/qlikview/index.htm.

or without port http://100.100.100.100/qlikview/index.htm.

could that be the error?

All that you are talking isn´t Qlikview doubt, but IT problems.

I recommend that you search a forum to understand how work a firewall and how to create rules of access.

Qlikview Web Server (Access Point) needs TCP 80 open. Nothing more I believe that you´ll find to help you
