Allow EXECUTE statement in QlikView 12 - Qlik Community

hugo_andrade · ‎2016-03-02

Good morning.

I would like to share how to allow EXECUTE statement in QlikView 12 Desktop and Server.

Thanks to Rob.

QlikView Desktop:

QlikView Server:

Add this record on the server's Settings.ini file:

AllowExecuteCommand=1

In Main Page click on Can execute external programs this will allow you to execute exe files.

Good afternoon Vikas,

This check box was effective on version 11.2 (all releases) and older versions. But it won't make any difference on QV12.

Thanks!

Hi Hugo,

It did not fix in my case. I am able to reload the task in local but not form QMC. I have restarted QVS after making changes to settings.ini file. Do we need to restart QDS as well?

Thanks,

Nithesh

Do you have QV Deskto installed on the server?

Try using the QV Desktop on the server. On the Settings.ini file, make sure there is an empty (blank) row after the AllowExecuteCommand line.

Let us know
