Automatic browser refresh does not work

[#1]

Hello All,

I am using QlikView version 11. I have enabled the setting - "Refresh mode when Document is Updated on Server" with the value -

"Server performs refresh automatically without client action". I have also enabled the option "Enable Push from server".

I am using QvAjaxZFC. When the document gets reloaded the client browser does not get refreshed automatically unless I click somewhere on the web page. However the same thing works fine with IE plugin.

Has any one faced this issue ? Is there any solution for this to work in AjaxZFC (without clicking) ?

Regards,

Samir Prasadi.

I think this works as intended.

With the document being published via http I don't think there is a pinging process whereby the client checks if there is a fresh version from the server, other than when the client asks for a data or screen refresh.

Then how does it works well using IE plugin ? I was expecting that the same functionality will work consistently no matter which plugin we use.

I don't know. I seem to recall the plugin uses a qvp protocol (I've not used it in a long time) and I think acts the same as if you're using the QlikView Desktop tool to open a file in server. In essence the plugin is more qlikview than browser, and therefore I suspect handles the pinging I spoke of.

Yes it uses the qvp protocol. Any workaround we can use like simulating the F5 key functionality or other options to get the data in browser automatically ?

You could have a macro running that sleep for a few seconds then makes a selection. Not sure this is advisable for performance reasons however, and your user will probably get the ugly 'reconnecting to server' message popping up.

Yup .. I am experiencing it. Thanks for your reply.
