I am trying to start the Qlikview Web Server but it is throwing an error. I have looked at the event logs which is shown below. I do not find IIS running on this machine. Can anyone give me a detailed fix for this issue? Thanks in advance.
Service cannot be started. System.Net.HttpListenerException: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process
at System.Net.HttpListener.AddAll()
at System.Net.HttpListener.Start()
at QlikView.WebServer.HttpServiceComponent.CreateAndStartHttpListener()
at QlikView.WebServer.HttpServiceComponent.Init(String[] args)
at QlikView.WebServer.HttpServiceComponent.Start(String[] args)
at QlikView.WebServer.AccessPointServer.OnStart(String[] args)
at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.ServiceQueuedMainCallback(Object state)
I usually do this when I have problems at some installations.
Open CMD and type netstat-ano. Now you can see the PID, which use port 80. Open Task manger and add column PID. Find the correct PID and see what process collides with the port 80.
I know some antivirus program use port 80. If you can't close the program that use this port, then you have to change the port no for QV Web Server as T Johnson suggest.
I was running QlikView server on my laptop and it turned out that the culprit was Skype - switch Skype off and Web Server starts fine! If you have Skype on a proper server might I respectfully suggest you have a polite discussion with whoever installed it!!
