Trigger EDX Qlikview 10

I used to run the trigger edx function posted by bbt (http://community.qlik.com/forums/t/18961.aspx) on Qlikview 9 perfectly.

However, I can't make it work on Qlikview 10. It stops at the command

objHttp.Send strKeyRequest

I read that the services have been merged. I am connected to http://myserver:4720/qtxs.asmx.

Any help on this topic?

Regards,

Marco

Thank you for sharing this file Bjorn Wedbratt and for the detailed process thanks to Ben Thomas.

I know this sounds stupid but can you(jpengiu) tell me how can I use the QVW that you posted above? I am trying to kick off all the tasks right after our Tidal services are done with. I have managed to create the batch file to run the VBS file in turn running all the dashboards but how can this batch file be automated , I mean how can we run this batch file right after our Tidal jobs are done automatically ? Please help.

Regards,

Abha

Within your job scheduler (Tidal) after its task is complete it would execute your batch file.

I'm Italian and now I'm on holiday and not in office.

I think it's possible.

If you create a window batch file like this:

File name startedx.bat

this file must contain for example:

C:\"Program Files"\QlikView\Qv.exe /NoSecurity C:\RUN_TASK_BY_EDX.qvw

in RUN_TASK_BY_EDX.qvw in Document/properties/Triggers(Eventi) OnOpen (su apertura)  you set to run the macro "RunTask".

best regards

Hi Jpengiu your macro is very intersting, but I have a problem, when i try to run this i received the error "invalid sintax" on send method.

I don't have publisher but only server

I have changed the parameters of http:\\ and the name of task (no password) and user and password to login on server.

Can you explain better the step to run the macro? It needs configuartion in the server?

Thank You

This is my server security setting but I don't know if they are important for EDX.

-NTFS Authorization

-Allow macro execution on server

-Allow unsafe Macro execution

-Enable server push over http.....

url = "http://servername.serverdomain.com:4720/qtxs.asmx"   

The server url is the same of QlikView Enterprise Management Console/System/Setup/Distribution Services/General/Url

User  must be on server in group "QlikView Administrators" and "Qlikview EDX" (on Server Windows)

We have the same configuration, but in my environment the macro not run properly.

I don't understand if the error depends of parameters or method.

I try to run the macro from my client with Qlikview desktop

Hi all,

 

In Publisher 8.5 we could trigger the jobs with EDX and just calling a URL:

http://myserver/ControlPanel/Job/RequestEDX.aspx?JobIdOrJobName=myjob&QueueIfRunning=True&RedirectUr...

 

Is this method also possible in QV10?

Thanks.

No.  That call is no longer possible in QV10.
