qvw file got deleted from Source Folder

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hello Qlik Folks, our Publisher task got failed because of qvw files was automatically deleted from source folder. The earlier task was failed with below

Error: The sourcedocument failed to save.. Exception=System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '\\vqliksan\QVSource\Sales\Sample\Sample_POC.qvw' is denied.

Error: at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)

Error: at System.IO.File.InternalCopy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName, Boolean overwrite)

Error: at QVBWrapper.Document.ReplaceSourceFile(ILogBucket logBucket, String replaceFromFileName, String replaceToFilename)

Error: at QVBWrapper.Document.Save(ILogBucket i_LogBucket, String i_SaveAsFileName)

Because of this error, file was deleted by Qlikview service account ?

This happening only one specific folders only. Our QVSource is SAN drive.

Does the Service Account has access to the folder?

Hi,

I think the user you are using for Publisher do not have access to the drive, or check whether any of the Developer is working on this file.

Or check the file system of the NAS folder, it should be NTFS.

Jagan.

No developers access the files on these folders.
