qlikview and nprinting

Hello,

On a server we have qlikview and nprinting.

The question is whether there is a risk to applications and reports?

Qlikview and nprinting services have problems when running in the same environment?


Thanks

That risk does exist. From https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/September2018/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/Supported...:

Qlik NPrinting Engine and Server should not be installed on the same computer where QlikView Server or QlikViewPublisher are installed.

There are no known incompatibilities between these two products, but in a production environment, Qlik NPrintingshould be installed on a separate computer (virtual or physical) from QlikView Server or QlikView Publisher because Qlik NPrinting Engine and Server will consume all the available resources of the computer they are installed on. This may lead to QlikView Server or QlikView Publisher crashing because of lack of resources.

Hi,

As documented in the official help site, this configuration is not supported. Nothing stops you to install a sistem with that architecture but the first time you will have a problem the answer will be: "This is an unsupported configuration. Please install you system in a supported way then we will proceed with deeper investigation". In other words, you do this at your own risk.

Best Regards,

Ruggero
