I have the following in my script and it works from the desktop but when running on the server the unzip command is not executed

EXECUTE cmd.exe /C COPY /Y "$(vJPM)" "$(vServerName)\QV\QVDs\Temp\";

EXECUTE cmd.exe /C unzip "$(vServerName)\qv\qvds\temp\*.zip"  "noble_JPM*.*" -q -d $(vServerName)\qv\qvds\temp\;

Have you tried to use the full path of the unzip, like: C:\Progra~1\Unzip\unzip.exe "$(vServerName).........?

Unzip is not a standard program on a Windows Server so you will have to get it installed to be able to use it.

You don't use an absolute path to the unzip executable. Are you sure that the path to it is in the PATH environment variable of the service account that reloads the qlikview document?

unzip is in the PATH environment variable of the service account and I have used an absolute path but still does not work

Was a DOS issue with the absolute path - moved unzip from Program files\unzip to C:\unzip and it is working - thanks
