Hello Everybody;

I have a big issue with our QlikView server Authorization and need help of any kind.

Here is the story:

We upgrade our QlikView Server Operating system from Windows 2008 R2 to windows 2012.

With Windows 2008 R2, Autorizations were under control;

After upgrade to Windows 2012, Everybody has access to the published QlikView documents and this is more than a concern.

Do anyone has ideas about how to fix issue.

Thank you for your contribution, in Advance!

Check which user groups have been added to the Security permissions of your documents folder. If your QlikView Document Access is based on NTFS, you may want to remove groups like "Users" or "Domain Users".

Hi Peter,

Thank you very much for your contribution. It put me on the right track to the solution.

The origin of the issue was the QlikView Server Machine migration that reset anything to the default properties.

Finally, the solution was to review the NTFS security QlikView Document by Document.

Many thanks!
