Changing Server Root Folder - Unhandled Error

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi all,

I have inadvertantly put a mounted folder in my root folder so I am getting 2 of every document in my access point, when I try to change the root folder or the mounted folder I get an unhandled error: -

An unhandled error occurred.

The requested name is valid, but no data of the requested type was found

Is there an easy way to fix this or am I going to have to reinstall the server....again....

Hi,

Mounted folders settings are stored under DocumentMounts key, within <QlikView Home path>\QlikViewServer\Settings.ini file. Try with this, but consider it as the last try before reinstallation:

1) stop QlikView Server service

2) backup entire <QlikView Home path> folder

3) remove value settings of your mounted folder from DocumentMounts key in Settings.ini file

4) start QlikView Server service

regards

Hi,

root folder is defined in the same ini file, under DocumentDirectory key. Which QV version are you running?
