Auto reloading of dashboards

[#1]

Hi frnds,

          I want to auto reload my dashboard. For this I created a batch file and add it in schedule task as well but my data is still not updating..

               Plz suggest some solution.

[maxgro]

some suggestions

does the task started?

does the batch work (when no scheduled)?

enable the log in your dashboard (settings --> document properties --> general --> generate logfile) and see if there is a log

post your batch

Hi,

Share your batch file script.

echo off

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\Qv.exe" /R "C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\SourceDocuments\c2_livetrack_internal\qvw\c2_livetrack_internal.qvw"

Hi maxgro,

this is a batch file....if generate logfile is unchecked in the document settings then it will not work??

[jonathandienst]

Generate logfile will not affect the schedule. The command looks OK, assuming the paths are correct. Does the batch file perform the reload if you execute it directly from a Cmd window?

[#7]

Just a general question, why would you use a scheduled task instead of letting Qlikview handle the reloading schedule?

I assume you mean using QV Server or Publisher? If so, I would use these instead of a bat file:

• You do not need a licensed user name or use up another license for a service account.
• Server/Publisher will use the server more efficiently than using foreground .bat tasks.

If you don't have QVS or QVP, then the bat file is the only way to go.

Thanks. I was trying to understand why guys would actually use batch files, probably the way to go if you do not have Server or Publisher.
