Hi all,
I'm trying to access a document on a server that is set to DMS Security.
When calling the document URL (like defined below), I get a "no connection" popup, which is qlikview's charming way of telling me that I need to pass in a ticket to identify my user. That is perfectly sound to me.
DOC URL: http://server.name/QvAjaxZfc/opendoc.htm?document=doc.qvw
So I get a ticket ID and attach a parameter
?ticket={...}
to the URL, which results in a login screen (username and password). Obviously the Ajax client automatically attached a parameter
&userid={...}
to my url, which leads me to the login screen. I don't understand why I get that login screen, if the ticket were invalid, i should get "no connection" popup, shouldn't I? I tried explicitly adding the user (the one that I get the ticket for) to the document Recipients list, but that doesn't change anything. I tried tickets for users that the application knows to be USERS and ADMINS, none gets access to the document.
Some more background on the security / authorization setup:
- The document is set to allow anonymous access so basically it should let anyone through.
- An access section is defined and restrictive mode is enabled.
Does anybody have an idea why I get that login screen? To my understanding, passing in a ticket should be sufficient to identify the user, shouldn't it?
TIA
Seb
