Qlikview Reload does not pull all database records

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

We have a Qlikview document that is scheduled for reload via Qlikview Server. When it runs at 6:10am via the server the log indicates only 60K records were pulled for one of the DB queries in the Edit Script. This is incorrect as there are over 105K records that should be returned from the query. Rerunning the task later in the day corrects the issue and the log shows the 105K records. Also running the exact same query via SQL Mgt Studio at 6:00am, just prior to the scheduled reload, returns the 105K records. The Qlikview log file does not indicate any failure, nor do the Qlikview server logs.

Looking for any suggestions here...Thanks in advance.

Here is a portion from the log when it does not return the correct number of records (the eCW_Patient is the table in question):

Re: Qlikview Reload does not pull all database records

Mon, 17 Mar 2014 17:08:48 GMT

A few suggestions:

Since when did this problem start occurring. All of a sudden or since beginning
The issue sounds very interesting. Can you try running at other times, maybe like earlier 4am or 5am. You can also play around with the reload time and see during what all times this is occurring
If you have permission to run from your local machine please try running it at different times and see if you face similar issues

Thanks

It could be that db is still updating at the time, especially if those are views you are reading from. So maybe most of the records are locked so not read. If those are tables, try using (with read uncommited) or nolock in your SQL query.

QV does not select what it reads, it reads whatever is available, based on the where clauses. I believe you should concentrate on the database side.

What build (Version & SR) of QV?

Re: Qlikview Reload does not pull all database records

giakoum — Mon, 17 Mar 2014 17:22:35 GMT

well it looks like I might be wrong...

Intermittent data loss (QV not loading the full dataset from source)

So Rob's question makes a lot of sense....

A bit disappointed from Qliktech here if this holds...

Ioannis,

Looks like I cannot get to the link you posted. I get an authorization error for some reason. Can you post any relevant of the text here.

Re: Qlikview Reload does not pull all database records

giakoum — Mon, 17 Mar 2014 20:39:11 GMT

For over a year now we have experienced an intermittent problem where our QV reload script returned a success result but had not loaded the full dataset from a source table.

This was eventually proven by repeatedly running the load script against a static and isolated database and comparing the number of records loaded. Occassionally (e.g. 1 in 20 reloads) the loaded data was missing some rows. Often the loss was only a few rows (tens or hundreds) but occassionally the loss was thousands. Usually on the next reload the full data was loaded. We have seen the problem on QV10 and QV11 and experienced it with Oracle, MSSQL and Access data sources but haven't tried it with others. We have recreated the problem on QV desktop and QV server. Increasing memory or changing the connection driver didn't resolve the problem.

QlikTech have acknowledged this as a high priority bug 47189 and are currently working on a fix. They have not suggested a work around or said it is something unusual in our script but our load script is VERY simple. For each table in our source database we select all the data and write it to a QVD file for consumption in other QVW documents.

TableA:

LOAD *;

SQL SELECT * FROM DataTableA;

STORE TableA INTO "DataFiles/TableA.qvd";

DROP Table TableA;

A discussion exists in the general QlikCommunity here if you want to know more

Now fixed in QlikView 10 SR5, which was released on June 28^th 2012:

Interesting issue (a bit worrying); I would add, for trace, the same select but only with a count of records before and after that statement.

I know we are on 11 but I'm trying to get the specifics. Will post back once I do.

I've been told we are on 11.0.11282.0.
