how section access works on Qlikview publisher and in Access Point

[Anonymous]

i want to know how the section access works on Qlikview publisher and in Access Point.

I have a section script in my application and used USERID ( should i have to use NTNAME here ? ) only, and a reduction field called PERMISSIONS in the section access file, which will restrict the data to the user who logs in.

it works fine locally,

But when i try to publish it in Qlikview Publisher , it isthrowing an error "Failed to open Document,You dont have access to this Document".

How could i solve it. Help me on this.

I think the reason will be that the user which runs the server-account isn't included within your section access table. Further I suggest to consider if NTNAME wouldn't be more suitable for the authentication - especially if the server authentication is set to NT it could work like a SSO.

Here you will find a collection of multiple useful links to Section Access which also include how to implement NTNAME. Before starting make sure that you have BACKUP's from your applications without section access.

Quite often the qlikview-server services runs not with a normal user like your user-account else with a special admin-user. Those user must be included with ADMIN within the field ACCESS and usually with a wildcard within the reducing-field in the section access table because per default-setting only users with ADMIN rights could execute a reload.
