cannot access the local file system in current script mode

[kdaniels-obrien]

I have some apps that were working just fine. The apps were created in Qlik Sense, not QlikView.   I am staging Qlik on another computer and came across this error: 

"$(MUST_INCLUDE= 'lib://myfile.qvs'" cannot access the local file system in current script mode. Try including with LIB path"

Instead of 'lib://myfile.qvs', it is a valid file path to the .qvs I'm trying to access.  I have read other posts on this error message but I don't want to use legacy mode if possible.  I'm not really sure of the impact of moving to legacy mode.  How can I fix this error message? I have tried using 'C:/myfile.qvs' instead of the 'lib://'.  Do I need additional data connections? Do I need to change permissions on the folder that the qvs is in?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi @kdaniels-obrien 

If I understood the description of your problem, it is happening after moving to a new computer, and you know the full path for the file myfile.qvs location; if this is correct then you need to create a new Folder Connection to the file's location by following these steps:

Open Application è Data Load Editor è Create New Connection è Folder è (enter the full path of the myfile.qvs folder) è Assign a name (myFolder) è Click on Create 

Now modify your must include statement as shown: 

"$(MUST_INCLUDE= [lib://myFolder/myfile.qvs]" 

Note that I replaced your single quotes with square brackets!

Hope this helps,
