IIS SSL and QEMC AccessPoint

[Anonymous]

I have moved away from QlikView webserver because SSL security profile was showing weak ciphers and SSL 2 and I could not see where to disable these.  Now we are running IIS and everything is working fine apart from AccessPoint settings in QEMC, if I tick require SSL in IIS the settings are longer displayed in QEMC, if I un-tick SSL they work fine.  If I try to access the URL directly from a browser I get prompted for credentials, what am I missing?

What version 10 or 11?

[Bill_Britt · Accepted solution]

This takes a little work, but if you are running version 10 then this is what you have to do.

First if you removed the binding for port 80 you will need to add another port. It can be any unused port like 8080.

Next open IIS and click on QvAjaxZfc and at the bottom Click "Content View"

Now you can see the files. Click on AccessPointSettings.aspx and in the right panel click " Switch to Feature View"

Now open the SSL Settings.

Now uncheck " Require SSL" Now we are only removing SSL support for this one file.

Once this is done. Open the QEMC and change the setting there to

http://<server name>/QvAjaxZfc/AccessPointSettings.aspx and if you used port other than 80 you will need to add

it after the server name.

In the below it is 8080

This should get you going. This is not require in version 11. There is a difference hook into IIS.

Hi All,

Adding little more to SSL.
I have successfully implemented SSL using QVS 11 with IIS.
Can you suggest what need to be done to redirect http://xxxx to https://xxxx

When user types http://xxxx it should redirect to https://xxxx

Thanks,

Kumar

Hi Kumar,

U can use HTTP redirect in IIS for redirecting page from http://xxxx to https://xxxx.

(Make sure HTTP reirect is installed for iis 7.)

Hi kumaram125,

After following the steps in the document, HTTPS is working fine but only in Full Browser View.

When i tried to open the document through IE Plugin client,  i am getting "bad request" error.
