Override "Failed to Open Document" Message

Hi,

When the section access is enabled and if a user doesn't have access to the QVW, then at the access point, user gets the message "Failed to Open Document". Is there anyway we can override this message with a customized one? (custom message might contain re-directive links)

Thanks!

Yes, there is. I hope you are well versed in JavaScript and HTML.

On your QlikView server, navigate to C:\Program Files\QlikView\Server\QlikViewClients\QlikViewAjax\htc and open QvAjax.js in a text/programmers/javascript editor. Search for your error message text, replace it, save the file and restart the QVWS. You may have to clear your browser cache as well.

Then test.

Another option could be to hide the document in AP when the user has no access rights.

If that's an option, follow
