Command line /l works but not /r

Most of my issue is explained in the subject line - for whatever reason when I execute the command line:

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe" /l "D:\Clients\Tory\Emails\Copy of QV_Saks_ShoesSwim.qvw"

The command executes and reloads the script. However when I execute the line:

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe" /r D:\Clients\Tory\Emails\Copy of QV_Saks_ShoesSwim.qvw

Nothing happens (not CPU is used). I have experimented with document properties as well as document settings in the QlikView application, however nothing seems to work. The strangest part about the issue is that another developer on my team is able to execute the script with no problem (though she has equal or less security clearance than I do). I unfortunately cannot upload the file to this post due to the sensitivity of the information, but any help would be very appreciated! I am currently running QlikView 10 (and am currently installing Qlikview 11 to see if that resolves the problem).

Best,

Alex

Try adding double quotes:

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe" /r "D:\Clients\Tory\Emails\Copy of QV_Saks_ShoesSwim.qvw"

Hey Gwassenaar,

I actually had tried that as well - still no CPU used/reaction from the computer. Thank you for your suggestion however.

Best,

Hi, Alex.

Have you checked that all your variables required for running the job are populated ?

e.g.

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe" /r  /v vVariableName='<VariableData>' "D:\Clients\Tory\Emails\Copy of QV_Saks_ShoesSwim.qvw"

Regards,

Neil

Alex,

If it runs with /l, there is no reason it can't run with /r.  The only difference is that the application is saved after /r.  See if you have permissions to save.

To troubleshoot, run it from cmd - you'll see error message if anything is wrong.

Regards,

Michael

Thank you for all your help guys. Not sure what the issue is but I reinstalled QV10 on the server and everything works now. Hopefully it doesn't come up again.

Best,

Alex
