RyanSolamen — Sat, 17 Oct 2015 03:46:28 GMT

Dear Experts,

Am using Qlikview 11.2 SR2, am unable to open .qvw file "fail to load", tried to change Rescue options & launching through command prompt with no data load, when tried through command prompt, QV page opened with same warning message again "Failed to Load". Any other suggestion here how to recover here. Thanks in advance.

Regards, Ryan

Hi,

Is it personal edition or license is leased from server?

Have you tried to open from folder or qlikview desktop?

By any chance changed folder?

Do you have any backups?

If you are not using source control, that would be a logical next step. It is a life saver for exactly this situation. We use Tortoise SVN and it is free. When I have had your error message, my only recourse has been to revert back to a previous version that I have saved. Backup early and often is a good rule of thumb.

Hi,

Have you tried ApplicationRescue Follow the steps:

1) Open your Corrupted QlikView Application.
2) Next Click on Help Option.
3) A List appears, Select About QlikView.
4) A Dialog Box Opens up, see on the Extreme Left Hand Side (Bottom) you'll find a Qlikview Logo.
5) Right Click on the Qlikview Logo, a Settings Window displays.
6) Scroll downwards the List & Select "ApplicationRescue".
7) Set the Value '1' in place of '0' in the 'Value' input Box Below.
😎 Finally, Click on Set Button.,

Once followed all these steps, Close your Corrupted Application and again open it. Check if it works.

Check for RAM Usage,Kill application like qvs.exe in taskmanager

Still an issue Restart services.

i know this is not the answer you want, but I think you are going to have to write off that qvw to experience and create a new one.

The 3 B's of IT are very important: Backup, Backup & Backup.

From reading the posts in this and your other thread, you have tried all possible options and they have failed.

Hi Ryan,

As Bill said,only option is left to create from scratch again as other options are exhausted.

And make sure backup option is selected.

Are you able to read the XML part of the QVW?

If so, maybe you can at least copy some informations about objects / expressions and use that for a new QVW.

Can you open the file in a text editor?

XML part should be at the end of the QVW file.
