qlikview document could not be opened

Hello we've got a qlikview document with script to read from QVD files

the document doesn't have SECTION ACCESS at all but we are getting the below error as per the log file:

we've got another server machine that has QlikView server installed and the task runs successfully but on the current machine that we are working on it is giving the above error

 

Kindly advise on what to do to fix this issue

Ali, is there any Script/Document log being created when you run things via the Task in QMC?  That is the next step on this one, as if you are getting that log, if you can attach, that should help us figure out where things are getting hung up.  If there is no log, check the Settings\Document Properties\General tab\Generate logfile setting there to be sure that is checked on the source doc, as otherwise it will not create things.  Not sure what version you are running either, since things are failing, if the logging is set correctly, you may need to go to the QlikViewBatch folder in ProgramData\QlikTech in order to find the partial script/doc log there, just FYI.

Regards,
Brett

Attached is the log file generated by the task
but now I changed the user account running the distribution service and the task ran successfully but now ran into another problem!!!
So the file what was failing to open by the task was open with the new user account and task finished successfully
Now we come to the dashboard file which binary loads from another file; 
if I open the dashboard in Desktop it reloads successfully in 10 seconds 
but if I run the task as per the log it reloads successfully but when it tries to save the file it took like 17 hours and didn't save so I had to manually stop the task and get the following error:

and when I stopped the task the following error was logged:

Ali, have a look at the following article link, I would say you need to try increasing the Desktop Heap size and see if that does the trick here or not.

Desktop Memory Heap & QVB Engines

Today we noticed a weird behavior
we ran ProcMon to monitor what might be going wrong during saving the document
and the tasks run successfully
whereas when we turned off this monitoring tool the tasks fail

we repeated this several times and the result is that whenever we run the monitoring took the tasks won't fail whereas when we turn off this monitoring tool the tasks fail

Any clue?

Ali, I would have to say there must be some other process getting hold of the QVW file such that the QDS/QVB no longer has the exclusive lock, and when you run ProcMon that is preventing that process from doing so, but I would think ProcMon should likely catch the other process trying to get hold of things.  The only other thing that comes to mind is something network related to where it would almost seem something is going to sleep and is not waking up in a timely manner and thus timing something out on our side, as ProcMon constantly touching things may be keeping that channel open?  Best theories of which I can think at the moment.
