system Monitor Failure due to 0kb .xml files created

shmkmr90 — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hi,

Sytemmonitor.qvw failed due to 0kb .xml files created in the below location. As per the below blog thread, 0kb .xml files are created when a task is disabled in the QMC. There were no tasks disabled to create these 0kb files, not sure what else could be the reason.

Please share your thoughts here.

Beside the reasons why there are 0 kb files it might be helpful to check the files per filesize() before loading and skipping then the wrong ones.

Thanks Marcus for your reply. I have scheduled this application in QMC to run every 1 hour. If i understood your point correctly, The challenge would be to check every hour before the run.

Am i correct?

It needs to be included within the load-script for example with an additionally check within a filelist-loop with something:

...

if filesize('$(vFileName)') then

... your load-statement

end if

...

Here an example of the logic: Loops in the Script.
