Hi,

How are you scheduling the QlikView Applications?

If you are using the QlikView server for the same then, you will find it in below folder.

C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Distribution Service

If you are using the Windows Scheduler then it should be in Windows log file.

Hi,

Ok you can go to Settings -> Document Properties -> General Tab -> generate Logfile

Also check "Timestamp in Logfile Name"

Hi Kaushik ,

Am getting an error message while trying to navigate through this path:

C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Distribution Service

[X Windows can't find ' C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Distribution Service'].Check the spelling and try again.

Thanks ,

Priya

HI,

Priya, This path will be valid for Windows Server 2008 and above or Windows 7 and above and that too only if you have qlikview server installed.

The above setting

"Ok you can go to Settings -> Document Properties -> General Tab -> generate Logfile

Also check "Timestamp in Logfile Name"

This setting will generate the log file in the same folder where you have your application.

Hi Priya,

As you said you have already done the scheduling right? and its works properly?

If yes then thats the auto reload.

Hi,

We can't reload the Application without Qlikview server, And U just set the default reload time of application in qlikview.

Another way to auto reload the application: Through windows task Manager.

if u r working in server,then auto reload possible by scheduling ..

Otherwise in in local desktop scheduling reload not possible...u need to do it manually load.

And log file u will get in ur application path.

"go to Settings > Document Properties > General Tab --check "generate Logfile" &

check "Timestamp in Logfile Name"

Step1: Create the bat file to reload the Application like below

copy and paste it in notepad and save it with extension .bat.

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\Qv.exe" /r "F:\qvsdocs\binary\publish\test1.qvw" // In here change the location based on ur file.

Step2: Open the taskscheduler(Run-->Taskscheduler)

Step3: Create the task (dialoag box will open, there u can see some tabs such as General, trigger, Action, condition)

Step4: enter all details

Step5: In trigger tab, U can schedule the time to reload as ur expected time for weekly or daily.

Step6: In Action tab, U can give that bat file location.
