Can't add New Sheet Object in Webview

Good day all!

I tried to create an object extension from its folder, then added it in the QlikView document (webview), then I edited the script.js for some corrections without closing the QlikView document.  When I get back to the desktop it caused some "Server error", I forgot the whole message.  then I restarted the Qlikview desktop (on webview) and tried to add New Sheet Object, but nothing happend, the dialog box is not displaying.  I re-installed the desktop but the same results.


I'm using Qlikview Desktop 11.2 SR9 on Windows 7, IE 9.

I just encountered the same problem.  That is, I modified the script.js and description.xml files associated with an extension.  I then went back to my qlikview document that was still open, hit F5 to refresh, and saw a "server error" message.  It killed my qv session, so I reopened the same qv document, and cannot add a new sheet object in webview.  I created a new qlikview document and still cannot add a new sheet object in webview.

Did you find a way to resolve your issue?

It turned out that one of my .js or .xml files must have had an error (although I have yet to identify what that error is). By deleting the folder for this extension, I have regained the ability to add a new sheet object in any qlikview document that is in webview.

Hello,

Actually you have an error in your XML file. XML is responsible for your object's metadata. Just check misspellings in your XML file and whether all tags are closed.

Hope this helps.

I just deleted the folder and pressed F5 and everything worked again... so I feel the above answer is the fix to the problem.
