Scheduled tasks don´t work

manuelj_serrano — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi everybody,

I have a serious problem and I have not any solution. From yesterday my scheduled tasks don´t work. I did not any change in server. To run my scheduled tasks I have to do it manually, but previously I have to edit the task, save it without do any change and then run the task. Each time that I want to run the task manually I have to do the same, edit and save the task.

Summarizing, the tasks scheduling is not working and for run the task manually I have to edit and save the task previously each time.

I dont know what is happening and why the scheduled tasks not start automatically.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Not quite clear, but if the tasks stopped working, check if anything happened to the service account. Maybe its password expired. check the log files, maybe you'll find some useful info.

Any task has expiration date. The problem is not with only one task, the problem is with all tasks in the server.

I´m going to recreate the task and will see if this solve the problem.

Thanks

Hi,

I have the solution. I´ve applied this solution and the tasks are working properly now:

First Step

1- Go to default location of the config file: C:\Program Files\QlikView\Management

Service\QVManagementService.exe.config

2- Then adjust the QMSChunkSize from 100 to 20

<add key="QMSChunkSize" value="20"/> .

3- Restart the QMS service.

Second Step

Stop the QlikView Distribution Service and QlikView Management Service

Navigate to c:\programdata\qliktech

Rename the \DistributionService folder

Start the QlikView Distribution Service and QlikView Management Service
