Link to pdf on other server

Hi all,

I would like to create a link to a PDF on an other server then our Qlikview-server.

In my developer tool, the link is working.

But If I try it on my access-point it will not werk.

I've set the representation to  "Link"

and this is the definition (xxx.x.xx.xxx is the ip-adress.)

avg( Factuurnummer)  &  '<URL>\\xxx.x.xx.xxx\data\' & Column(3) & '.PDF'

Why is this not working in my accesspoint?

Regards,

Kris

Thanks, but what if it is not a website but an ip-adress. (The pdf-documents are on an other server in the network.)

Hi,

If I use

avg( Factuurnummer)  &  '<URL>\\XXX.X.XX.XXX\data\' &Column(3) & '.'PDF'

this link is working on my desktop version.

On firefox it opens an empty tab.

In Chrome itdoes nothing but if I hybernate the link, In the left corner I see "File://XXX.X.XX.XXX/data/1234.PDF"

And this documetn exists.

http://xxx.x.xx.xxx/data/2015/1234.PDF

is not working.

in Chrome he opens a link but says '404 NOT FOUND' If I put '\\' before the url he opens the pdf.

In firefox it is not working at all.

regards,

Kris
