Setting up Shared Directory for Storing QV Files

Hello guys,

I have set up a shared directory to store the Root folders and files in Qlikview Server for failover scenario.

After moving the files from local drive to Shared directory, I made the below changes:

  • Updated QMC -> Qlikview Servers-> Folders -> Root Folder
  • Updated QMC -> Qlikview Servers-> Folders -> Mounted Folders
  • Updated QMC -> Qlikview Servers-> Folders -> Alternate Extensions Path
  • Moved the Files in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\QlikTech\Qlikview\extensions to the Shared Directory
  • Updated QMC -> Qlikview Servers-> Folders -> Alternate Temporary Files Path
  • Updated QMC -> Qlikview Servers -> Logging -> Log Folder
  • Updated QMC -> Distribution Services -> General -> Settings for QDS -> Application Data Folder
  • Updated QMC -> Distribution Services -> General -> Settings for QDS -> Source Folders
  • Copied the content of C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\ManagementService to <Shared Dir>\ManagementService
  • Updated C:\Program Files\Qlikview\Management Service\QVManagementservice.exe.config to have shared directory Management Service folder in ApplicationDataFolder value
  • Updated QMC -> Management Service -> Repository -> Optional base Path and Migrate data
  • Updated the Windows Registry Path from local drive to Shared Directory Path
  • Restarted IIS

After making all the above changes, I can open the Qlikview application from Desktop client and when I open it from web browser (Access Point), I get the below error:

"Failed to open the document. You don't have access to this document."

I was able to access this document when it was in the local drive.

I checked various posts about the above error and I checked my document properties -> Opening -> Strict exclusion is unchecked.

Please advise on ways to fix this.

Regards,

Dev
