Tunneling setup - QV11 server on separate box than IIS7

[#1]

We are trying to test tunneling with QV11 and IIS7. My environment is 2 separate machines currently on the same network both running windows 2008R2. I have setup firewall rules to allow ports 80, 4750 (QV setting service) and configured tunneling in IIS7. I can test the setup as described in the tunnel setup guide and I do get the expected results. When I attempt to access a document directly using qvp://QVSServer/Doc.qvw the document fails to open. When I use access point it cannot produce a list of documents producing a "So Server" message. The minute I open up port 4747 on my QV server all works well. Has anyone had any luck with tunneling? I thought that if you used tunneling only port 80 will need to be opened?

I solved my issue. I did not have the QWS installed on my QlikView Server. Something had to be listening on port 80 !. Once I did that tunneling worked, the Client Errorlog shows:

Hi Ramasamy.

Did you get it to work? If so: Where did you add the HKEY's?

I guess: Server 1 - IIS. Am I correct in that ?

You nned to  change the registry key at Server1 - IIS, and point QVSServer parameter to one of the Qlikview servers.

The tunneling only works with one servers. There is no load balance with tunneling.
