Server and Extension

[samuel_brierley]

hi all,

I cant seem to get my server to pick up my extension objects. firstly i put them in the right location as instructed by other posts (C:\Users\samuel.brierley\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects).

that didnt seem to work so then i put them elsewhere and used the alternate path box in the QMC.

that didnt work either?

FYI.

I have windows server 2012 R2

My QMC says extensions are enabled

any ideas?

I think you need to use this path:

\\YourServer\D\QlikView_Server\ProgramData\QlikViewServer\Extensions

Alternatively you could specify a different path within the qmc/system/setup/QlikView Server/Folders on the bottom.

Hi Marcus,

that above path doesn't exist although i do have the one below.

Originally there wasn't an extension folder in here so i created one. that didn't work.

finally, I've tried the alternate location within the qmc, that didn't work either.

C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\QlikViewServer

My suggested path and your path are quite the same then: \\YourServer\D = C:\ with the difference of writing it as unc-path and using D:\ as drive instead of C:\. But I'm not sure if the folder Extensions and the further sub-folders like Document or Objects are existing as default. Try to create these folders, copy your extension there and again I'm not sure but I believe you must restart the server-services.

thanks Sommer,

i'd created the extensions folder but not the objects subfolder.

thanks for the help
