After upgrading from 10SR3 to 10SR4, downloads in documents from HTML sources no longer appear to be working under the QDS. The application reloads fine interactively when opened on the server using the QDS service account, and was working prior to the upgrade without issue, so it looks to be something specifically introduced by the upgrade.
I have a feeling it might be related to the issue below:

I will test the proposed work around in the above post shortly, but I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing similar issues?
Here is a simple example to recreate the issue - just put this script in a QV document and execute it via the QDS (running it interactively under the QDS service account, on the QDS server works fine):
CountryCodes:
LOAD [Country Names (in English)],
RowNo() as TmpRow,
[ISO 3166-1-alpha-2 code] as Country
FROM
[http://www.iso.org/iso/country_codes/iso_3166_code_lists/country_names_and_code_elements.htm]
(html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @1);
Running it interactively works ok, but when running it via a QDS task, the task fails with the following error:
16/06/2012 21:22:53: 0009 SET TimestampFormat='DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss[.fff]'
16/06/2012 21:22:53: 0010 SET MonthNames='Jan;Feb;Mar;Apr;May;Jun;Jul;Aug;Sep;Oct;Nov;Dec'

16/06/2012 21:22:53: 0024 (html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @1)

Thanks
I think the issue posted at the following link is potentially related. The workaround suggested there (configuring the reload as an external task) appears to work around the problem.

It baffles me how a QV release can go out without even the most basic functionality working.
Hopefully this post helps someone else facing the same issues.
