Enable/Disable Logfile without opening qvw

This is a long shot, but is there a way to enable/disable logfile generation without opening the dashboard? This is for a Huge application (~20GB) which doesn't upon on local desktop machine.

I do have an alternate of opening this with no data and then enabling/disabling the logfile, but I wonder if there is another way to do this without opening the qvw.

Thanks,

Sunny

But this properties should be based on the settings done from document, right? Can we update it?

Sunny,

When you updated the XML, you reran and it did not generate a logfile?  Last time I checked, the XML was not the actual settings but reflected the settings. Has this changed?

It did seem to change the settings for me on the local desktop client. I am attaching the little sample that I created with this response.

I get it.  you changed it in the -prj\Docproperties.xml, which would be read when the document is opened.  That would work.

I was responding to Stefan's suggestion to "messing around with the XML part of the QVW", which I believe would not work, as that XML is a reflection of the property.


The -prj is a great idea. Going round trip on your question, you still have to open the document to create the prj, right? (unless you already have one).

Hello Sunny, This is interesting. So do i have to create a -prj folder before i change xml? how did you open documentproperties.xml? For a qvw file?

This might be stupid, but I am not really sure what XML part of the QVW means? I thought the -prj XML's is what he meant

Hahahaha that's right... I actually was too scared to modify the qvw using the -prj that I moved ahead with the no data option in the end...(besides you are right I didn't have -prj in the first place, but I was hoping to use your document analyzer to create one -> Not sure if Document Analyzer would have taken more/less/same amount of time to create it)

Yes, -prj needs to be created before you can do anything. I used NotePad++ to modify it...
