QMC Distribution Failure

Hi All,

The QVW runs fine on the desktop but fails when run through QMC and getting this error. Any ideas??

There is no section access or loop reduce on the document.

The document has execute statement which runs fine on QV desktop on Server Machine.

2017 9:53:04 PM) Error: Could not run ReduceData. Exception=System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file 'C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\DistributionService\1\temp\f159fbef-5970-4c17-849b-de4615d05ce6\document.qvw' because it is being used by another process. || at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) || at System.IO.File.InternalDelete(String path, Boolean checkHost) || at SolutionGlobal.FileSystem.FileSupport.DeleteFile(String fileName, Nullable`1 tryFor, Nullable`1 sleepDuration) || at QVBWrapper.Document.Save(ILogBucket logBucket, String savePath, Boolean checkoutSavedDocument) || at QVBWrapper.Document.ReduceData(ILogBucket logBucket, Boolean reduce, String savePath, Boolean checkoutReducedDocument, Boolean save)

Hi,

when the error code is: Exception=System.ArgumentException: Empty path name is not legal:

on some issues on the community, they are talking about a Bug on certain releases or when there is selection enforced.

hope it helps

Therefor the next question is this: which version of QlikView Server are you running?

You're running SR4, which is the release in which another problem with Loop&Reduce (not used by you) and an "Empty path name is not legal" was fixed.

You may want to contact Qlik Support with this (new) issue.
