QDF does not install on Sense server 2.2

Tue, 22 Jul 2025 17:59:49 GMT

This is the error I'm getting in the log:

06.03.2016 21:10:48 Error updating csv file. Error was:Could not find a part of the path 'C:\QlikSense\\3.Include\1.BaseVariable\dtprojects'.

Furthermore, the Example-container and the Shared-container is also not installed. ( I have checked the Examples-box during execution of the install)

The environment is Qlik Sense Server on a Widows Server 2012 R2 operating system.

I hope I can get some advice, thanks in advance.

Hi Lars, in Qlik Sense 2.2) we have identified a change of behaviour in FileSize(), this in turn breaks the vL.FileExist function that identifies files and folders. We have created a workaround for this that is found last in this thread. Hope that it will help you. Best regards

Hi Magnus, thanks for quick answer.

The patch made the QDF initiation run further, but it fails further on.

I guess it still has something to do with the wildcard match, the error log suggests that, see enclosed log.

vL.ContainerStructure << INLBA8D

Lines fetched: 18

vL.temp_table_map << ContainerMap

The following error occurred:

No qualified path for file: "\*"

The error occurred here:

Hi Lars, I've temporarily created and validated the new FileExist script that you can use to get around this problem (attached). Best regards
