It may be necessary to create a self-signed certificate for use with QlikView, either with the QlikView Webserver or Microsoft IIS.
 
The instructions provided in this article show one possible method.

 

Create the certificate using OpenSSL
 
  1. Download OpenSSL (OpenSSL Binaries)
  2. Launch a command line on the machine where the certificate will be used
  3. Generate a private key with:
    openssl genrsa 2048 > private.pem​

    Note: For additional assistance on the use of OpenSSL, refer to the third-party vendor.

  4. Generate the certificate with:
    openssl req -x509 -days 1000 -new -key private.pem -out public.pem​
    Note: For additional assistance on the use of OpenSSL, refer to the third-party vendor.
