This looks like a NTFS directory permissions issue. Ensure that you have at least read access to the document.

1. Have you done this?

2. Go to your document folder right click it go to properties then go to security access assign /grant full access to document.

Hi Sumita,

Check the Section Access User list whether he/she is there in list, if you have implemented the section access in that document.

Security may not be implemented in your QVW, but did you accidentally check "Initial Data Reduction based on Section Access" in Settings->Document Properties->Opening?

In that case, uncheck it and save your document again.

Good luck,

Peter

Hi @saranccet,

I suggest that you start a new thread regarding your issue as it doesn't appear to be the same issue that the author of this thread had. Also, this thread has been closed for approximately six years, so a new one would be best. Be sure to include the full QlikView version (i.e. 12.50.20300), if the issue is occurring in QlikView Desktop or when using QlikView Server/AccessPoint, along with the exact steps you are taking when the issue occurs.

Best Regards
