Qliksense .Local Certificate folder not found - Qlik Community

Anonymous · ‎2016-09-28

HI guys,

I just have installed the Qlik sense server successfully. but i cannot find the .local certificates folder, the doc said the the folder is available under"C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Repository\Exported Certificates" after the installation.

need to retrive the local certificates to perform some QRS API call from the server machine. I want to perform an automatic License import in a silent mode installation, did i need a license to have this folder? because the doc doesn't said so !, please, What could be the problem and how can i solve it? i

i'm using QlikSense V 2.2.

any help would be appreciated

Thanks,

Hassan

That is where they are on my server. I am running 3.0.

Are you sure that you can see that folder and what is in it?

Hi Mark,

thanks for your feedback.

i have an other Qliksense Sandbox Server (with a license) and i was able to find the .local certificates.

from the other server ( without License) there is no exported certificates folder (so, no .local certificates), this is how my

"C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Repository" folder looks like :

is this, have anything to do with the license? if so, i think that i will never got to automatically import the License ..

I'll try to install version 3.0, just to be sure

Thanks again

I had the same problem but noticed that ProgramData was a hidden folder. When I checked in the file explorer to show hidden folders, I found it.

Jorge_1 · ‎2019-12-23

Maybe is one of solutions. I found that the local certificates were not installed automatically when you install RIM node. Once RIM installed I'have performed the association from the central node, and then the certificates were installed on the rim node. An important thing is that the port 4570 of the rim node mut be open in order to get those certificates.

Hi Guys, I am facing this issue in Qliksense april 2020 version.

I really appreciate your help..

Thanks for your reply. Indeed, Central Node takes some minutes to find the RIM node, and as you said port 4570 on RIM node must be on listening status.
