I am getting this error in the logs when i reload a QV file.

On reloading the second time the document reloaded successfully.

Any idea about this error ?

Any lock on the file? If it is being used while it is being written?

thanks,

Hi Rajesh,

Yes that could be an issue. is there any way to check the same ?

ie., i need to prove to the client that the failure was due to a parallel reload (or) doc open by another user.

Is there any way i can find these information using windows logs? if yes how ?

I would disable parallel reload to ensure that this is not the issue,

On QVS

2003 Server:

C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikViewBatch\

2008 server

The path to the correct Settings.ini file should be: The ini file for QVB is here: C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming\QlikTech\QlikViewBatch\

By adding the EnableParallelReload=0 under the [Settings 7] tag somewhere. There is no need to restart any services after adding this, as the QVB process reads the Settings.ini every time a QVB process is launched

We came across same error and found that for some unknown reason, the QV user for third party tool NPrinting was stuck and which made the user stuck/forzen for every instance.

We stopped the Nprinting task and then restarted other stuff and it worked fine
