what if i delete .pgo , .shared, .meta files..

Dear Community,

Please explain me,

1) what if i delete .pgo , .shared, .meta files,? what will happen?

2) when these files get created, updated?

3) how many files get created per document? or per server settings?

i have general idea about these files...and i have Qlikview server and desktop both 11.2 SR6.

reason to delete them, because i loose, document authorization and information setting very often,

in QMC >> User Document >> Authorization & Information...

Thanks

Khan

Hi,

I would think your issue is do to your ticket timing out. When using SSO you are issue a ticket to pass to the server. Once that ticket is use it can't be used again. So, if the session is timeout and you hit refresh or click on an object the ticket that will be presented is no longer good.

Also, if you don't have the refresh mode setup correctly in the document it will also disconnect you on a reload.

Solution told by QlikTech Support:

.........................................................

anyone having same issue please follow the below solution.........


This issue because of .Meta files,

remove the .meta files for those documents (Services must be stopped when removing these)?

It might be that they are corrupted and that would cause the information updated inside of it to be lost.

.meta files contains authorizations, category, document settings, so you will have set these

properties again after you removed them, but that should solve the issue and the settings will not be lost anymore after that action.


Kind Regards
