Hi Everyone,

I am looking for only Qlikview License Desktop. I have Qlikview Small Business Edition (SBE) License.

I have applied the same license at Qlikview Personal Edition settings -->User Preferences --> Licenses.

But I am getting the below error.

Please confirm for Qlikview License Desktop Small Business Edition (SBE) License will work or not.

If I install Small Business Edition (SBE) server I will get desktop also in addition to server same like Qliksense.

Thanks,

You cannot use a server license key directly on QlikView Desktop. What you need to do is lease a license from the server for the desktop.

Hi Rob,

Thank you so much for your Reply. I have worked on Qliksense Server Installation. I am very new to Qlikview server.

To lease the license first we need to install the Qlikview server Right?

For Qlikview server installation same like QlikSense am I need windows 2012 R2 server  or  am I able to install on My local machine windows 10 without functional account.

or

Is their any way to get only Qlikview Desktop license without installing the server.

Is their is no way please provide the steps for  Qlikview Small Business Edition Server Installation and Configuration.

I have got 5 User CALs in my license. Please describe the User CALs also.

Thanks in Advance

Yes, to be able to lease licenses you must install the QV Server.  You can install the QV Server software on your Windows 10 workstation.  Be advised that you can use a serer license key on only one machine at a time.  If you later install the same server license key on a Windows 2012 server for production, be sure to un-install the server from the windows 10 machine.

Installation Installing QlikView Server ‒ QlikView and licensing Licenses ‒ QlikView instructions are in the on-line help.

CALs (Client Access License) are what allocate to users to allow them to access QV documents on the server.  The User CALs are also used to license (as leased licenses) QV Desktop for development.

QV Desktop may also be licensed using a "local license".  However, this kind of license is not included with your Server license.  If it is your intent to never use the Server piece, contact your Qlik account rep to see if you have purchased the correct type of license.

It looks like the QliView Management Service has not started, possibly a logon failure.  Open services.msc and take a look at the status of the 5 QlikView Services. If they are stopped, try to start them. If you get an error message and cannot deduce the problem (like "logon failure"), then look at the service logs found in

C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\ManagementService\Log

There is a separete folder for each service.

Hi Rob,

Thank you so much for you help.

Yes My services was not Running. I have started the services then the able to login to QMC.

I have applied the license leasing to Qlivkiew Personal Edition Successfully and able to connect to the Server.

Now Desktop is available like Qlikivew Evaluation copy.

One more doubt My server License valid upto 2018-10-31. Upto that period am i able to use the Qlikview Desktop by leasing License or it will expire after 30days because in the above attached you tube video mentioned as license lease will apply for 30days.

Is this temporary or permanent solution please confirm.
