Change server error message

azweglin — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 20:10:43 GMT

Hi Guys,

is there a possibility to change server error message?

Case:

We wan to switch accespoint to https instead of http. It means that when users have bookmarks saved for http then they will stop work and users will be given 404 server error. We were thinking if there is a possibility to change error message and somehow let users know that they should be using new link now?

Thanks in advance

I would recommend at least using the Custom System Message function available in the QMC under System > Setup > Qlikview Web Servers > Accesspoint > Accesspoint Settings. Use a message that'll alert users to make sure they're accessing your Accesspoint using the correct link. You could also automatically forward the URL from your HTTP to HTTPS URL so users can't access the HTTP site anymore, assuming you want all users to be directed to the HTTPS site.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Josh

Aleksandra, you did not mention what web server you are using, but if you are using IIS, you should be able to setup a redirect there such that if a user uses HTTP, IIS will redirect them to HTTPS... There is no means to do this with our Web Server as it can only be configured as HTTP or HTTPS not and...
