I keep getting errors when running "Validate Inputs" in an environment with two servers (one with QMC, distribution and one with QVS and web server).
I intend to run the Governance Dashboard on the server where source documents/QMC/distribution lives, but then need to access the documents on the access point server (i.e. QVS and web server).
But - however I enter the path to the server where the qvw files live, I get a "File Path directory does not exist or cannot be reached. Please validate your entry: <path>".
I've tried \\<hostname>\AccessPoint, \\<IP>\AccessPoint and also sharing the directory on the 2nd server and mapping it on the first server (i.e. connecting to a z: drive, which is mapped to \\<IP>\AccessPoint).
I can connect just fine between the servers, viewing files on z: while on server 1. But it looks like the Validate Input button refuse to scan files on a different server...
Any ideas?
Goran - some assumptions
This is most likley a bug - I will verify.
I was able to get this to work by using the mapped drive and appending a sub-directory to the path. So instead of just using Z:\ - I used Z:\docs2
Mapped on my machine with QVGD as Z:\
Accessed on my machine with QVGD as Z:\Docs2
The physical location on my server with the documents is:
C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Documents - which is shared
So if you use this default path - share the drive one level up - so you can configure the QVGD configuration with the mapped drive letter and the sub-directory:
Both drive letter and UNC should work:
Let me know how you do

Verified as a bug and a case has been opened.
Ok thanks.
