Hi,
We are attempting to schedule a reload task using QDS.
The QV Load script loads the data from a network drive (samba share). When the reload is executed manually the script works fine without any error. But with automatic scheduler, the task fails with the error :
"CANNOT OPEN FILE M:\*'. The system cannot find the path specified.
LOGON FAILURE: unknown username or password.
Kindly provide any pointers to overcome this issue
Regards,
Amar
Please check the Qlikview service account access to the files folder location.
The error looks like access error.
Hi Amar,
I think this error is because of the user you are configured for qlikview server is not having access to the files, give read and write access and try to reload.

Hi Amar
The reason for this is that QDS service user doesn't have enough privileges to access network files.
Go to Server Management (assuming you QDS runs on Windows Server) -
make sure that all QlikView services are using a username with full privileges to all network folders and restart the services.
Thanks

The reload service cannot use mapped drives (M:). The script must use a unc path \\server\share\ifilename

Rob can you please give me an example i am also having the same problem
A UNC path would be something like:
\\fileserver01\Accounting\data\closing.xls
Note that the "Accounting" share must be created a by a Windows or *nix Administrator on the "Fileserver01" machine.
