Data Transfer Problems:

[FranciscoQ]

Hi,

My Data Transfer is not working very well. 

I have a folder type connection , to upload qvd files into my SaaS tenant.

The qvds in that folder are updated everyday, a QVW (Qlikview) application runs and store the qvds in that folder.

The problem is that Data Transfer is not "watching" that the qvds are updated, so It doesn't upload the information into SaaS. It was doing it last week..  every time the qvds were updated, data transfer uploaded them.

So I manually pressed "load" to upload the data from that folder, and it remained in loading status for like an hour, they are not heavy qvds..  and last week the process only took a few minutes.

After that, the loading process failed and this is the error that appeared:

Anyway, I tried again. Manually, another long time loading,  and again the same error appeared, but in another file:

I tried another time and the data was uploaded.

But I couldn't make happen that the conection noticed that the qvds are updated to load them automatically. 

It doesn't end here. I have another folder conection with only one excel file. I modified it in order to see if Data Transfer would noticed that the info was updated. Succesfully Data Transfer detected that, and uploade the excel file into SaaS.

But it Uploaded two excel files, both are the same, one with the correct name, and another excel file with a " ~$ " prefix:

There is only one file in the folder:

I don't know what is going on. And what should I do, reinstalling it maybe?

Hello @FranciscoQ,

Hi FranciscoQ,

Did you resolve this issue?

I have the same problem of QDT not detecting that a QVD has changed and the version is November 2022.

Best regards,

Claire

Hi, same here, QDT doesnt detect QVD changes only random files are uploaded.

If we load manually QDT upload all files, we need a solution please.
