What path do you have it at on your computer?

If you're using the bullet extension that comes with QV, it needs to be placed at ..\Extensions\Objects\QlikView\Examples.

You can tell where it needs to be placed by looking at the Script.js file:

Can you post the Script.js file? I can help you out better if I can see that file.

Hello Dror,

Is this a problem only with this one extension, or have you seen similar problems with other extensions?

Does this problem only appear in the AJAX Client? Have you seen the same occuring as a test in IE Plugin?

Thanks,

Mark

Can you open up the bullet folder and post a screenshot of what is all in there?

Also, if you're using an older version of Windows Server (such as 2003), extensions need to be placed in a different directory:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikViewServer\Extensions\Objects

It should work on your test server. I'm confused as to why it isn't working.

So strange--I can't figure out what's wrong. Can you send me the whole extension? I can try it on my machine and see if it works for me.

It works fine on my machine (here is a screenshot of it on my QV server):

Are the other extensions on your server working?

Maybe try checking this setting on your QMC to see if there is a different path that the extensions need to go (mine is blank, so they go in the normal path):

Try this as a test. In AJAX recreate the object and see if it works. You can also use Fiddler to see where it is trying to find the extension.

weird. I´ve deployed the hole thing to the production machine and there it works...

Nicole-Smith — Fri, 10 Jan 2014 15:01:42 GMT

Very strange. But I'm glad that it works now!

Try doing this:

In QMC, go to User Documents, select your document on the left, and on the right - Server, Availability. Check Access method "Full Browser..." and uncheck other methods.

Repeat for each document.
