SilentErrorInChart

Hi There,

Does anyone know how to turn off the SilentErrorInChart setting?

It seems that with the release of SR11 (this is occurring with SR12 as well) Qlik fixed a bug 69228 that now results in syntax error messages in object expressions are now returned to objects instead of returned as NULL.

This results in entries in the event log similar to this:

Error SE_LOG: Expression Error. Doc: E:\PROGRAMDATA\QLIKTECH\DOCUMENTS\Some_QlikViewDocument.QVW, ObjectId: , Expr(0)

Apparently by default this is turned off on the server (QlikView 11.2 SR12 release notes).

One can turn it on by putting an entry in the system.ini file SilentErrorInChart = 0.

What we're experiencing though is that with no entries for SilentErrorInChart the "errors" are logged as above.

We've also tried to add an entry SilentErrorInChart = 1 with no avail.

Hi There,

Thank you for your reply.

The problem is the release notes say that you can turn the logging on by using SilentErrorInChart = 0 and on QV Server this is off by default.

My question is : how can I turn off SilentErrorInChart? (It seems to be that it is not turned off by default for some reason).

Just try the below. Not sure whether it resolves the issue. Just a random thought.

May be your QlikView Server/Service has to be restarted. Or follow the below steps

1. Add SilentErrorInChart=0 to Settings.ini file in C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\QlikViewServer

2. Restart the Server

3. Check whether it is logging errors in expressions

4. Remove SilentErrorInChart=0

5. Restart the Server

6. Let us know the result

This is currently a bug in SR11 & SR12.

We'll hopefully see a fix in a future release.

I‌ have SR6 and this setting seems to be missing. But SR11 may have it. Worth a try.

The bug # I was given by Qlik Support is QV-749.

Hopefully we'll see a fix at some point!

This would affect the performance of the server as well.
