Change of Logfile behavior in QV12

[ottebian]

Hello everyone,

hope this is right in the Management-Section

We just recently upgraded our Qlikview-Servers from V11.20.12742.0 to V12.10.20100.

Today we noticed something strange when looking at a logfile on the Server.

It seems like the behavior of the logfile creation has changed.

in V11: The new logfile was immediatly created after a task was started. While the task was running the task progress was added to the logfile bit by bit. That was a very nice feature, because one could always take a look into the logfile to find out how far a task had progressed, if it is stuck somewhere and so on.

in V12: The logfile of the last run stays in place while the task is running. After the task has finished, the old file is deleted and the new one created as a whole.

Is there any way to change that behavior of the server?

If you have any need for further clarifications, feel free to ask.

Regards

see discussion - 12.1 SR2 log files not being generated

No solution found, but

"in V12 - when the .qvw is running, the constantly updated log file is in - C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\QlikView"

I am planning to open a ticket on this on Friday if someone does not provide a solution before then.

Didnt't see your topic back then. Thanks for pointing it out and the effort you made to create a solution.
