See QlikView in Safari

[#1]

Hi,

I have some colleagues that are running Mac and I am now trying to make them see QlikView. I have a QlikView server that I'm reading from. What should I do for making it work on Safari?

I have tried to find this information in the Community and on QlikView.com but I can't find it. I guess it's something quite simple.

Thank you for your reply.

Best regards
Karin

Hello Karin,

Safari, as any other browser, can get to the Accesspoint and the documents through AJAX (the rendering may be slightly different from other browsers). The only thing you need to do is to allow the document to be displayed in AJAX, in the QlikView Enterprise Management Console, Documents, click on the document and check "AJAX zero footprint client".

Hope that helps.

Thank you Miguel,

Could you please advise me better where I find the place to allow display in AJAX, I can not find it.

Thank you very much!

Hello Karin,

In the computer where the QlikView Server is installed, go to the Windows Startu Button (bottom left, usually), then select "All Programs", "QlikView", "QlikView Enterprise Management Console".

Internet Explorer will show up with the management console of QlikView. You will see there some tabs (depending on the running version), one of them is "Documents". In the left part of the screen, you will see your server, something like "QVS@servername" and a plus sign [+] on its left. Expand it and the list of documents under Root Folder and Mounted folders (the latters with a red asterisk in its icon) will appear.

Click on any of the documents available, and the right pane will appear with some tabs. Click on the Server Settings tab, and check "AJAX zero footprint client" (there will be IE Plugin, Java...) in the "Access method" section. Then click the "Apply" on the bottom right.

Then, go to the Accesspoint (http://yourserver/qlikview/ by default) and your document should appear.

Regards.

Then I understand why I can't find it because the server is not installed on my computer, I will forward it to the correct person.

Thank you very much for your help.

All the best

Now I have the same problem again. I've tried the three following links:

http://itmoqlikview/accesspoint/index.htm

http://itmoqlikview/accesspoint/

http://itmoqlikview/qlikview/

and none of the links work in Safari, it give the message "you are not connected to internet" even if I am. Anyone that knows why it is like this and what I should do to make it work again?

Thanks

Karin

Hi Karin,

Probably obvious but does a ping to itmoqlikview return any response? Are any other servers available and reachable? What has changed since the last time it worked?

Hope that helps.
