QlikSense Desktop (Credentials are missing)

[#1]

All,

After installing the Qliksense Desktop on Windows 7 Enterprise, I get the following message:

What I have identified so far:

. We don't use proxy on Localhost connection

. QlikSense will work fine on the same computer if I run the program as an administrator

I would appreciate any hints about what to look next in order to get his working. The ambition here is to deploy the QlikSense Desktop on a dozen of target Qlikview users to ask for their feedback and agreement to move to QlikSense before starting an evaluation on a QlikSense server based environement.

Many thanks in advance for any help / suggestions,

Thierry

All,

Like always, after posting the question, I found the answer myself   🙂

The workaround is:

1. Start the QlikSense Desktop and get the "Credentials are missing" error

2. Don't close the QlikSense Desktop application

3. Open Internet Explorer

4. Enter the following URL:   http://localhost:4848/hub

5. Enjoy Qliksense (which is the easy part)

This works with the following configuration:

. Windows 7

. No proxy for localhost address

. QlikSense Desktop 2.2.4

. Internet Explorer

Hope this can save anyone else some time...
