Loading excel data from share point site gives error in Qlikview?

Hello Everyone,

In my application I am pulling data from Sharepoint URL(Site is Https).

There are about four excel files available in this URL([https: // sharepoint. mydomain.com/ files /filename *.xls).

In the windows server when I am trying to load the excel data using the qlikview desktop reload Reload button I am getting the following error .

File not found error .

Cannot open file :’’

System error:Filesystem::FindImpl FindFirst call:Incorrect function

Just to say here the share point location URL are correctly mentioned .Also the files are exists in the said location with the data.

2)In the Qlikview QVW file using the Windows Explorer option to point to the sharepoint location URL for reading the excel data.

3)Since the sharepoint site is https we are mentioning in the sharepoint URL @SSL as below

\\XX.XXXX.XXX@SSL\Source\Qlikview\1.Dev\FileNam e *.xls

If I am running the same qvw file using the service account (Service account have been added in the sharepoint site ,it is having the contributor level privileges ) in QMC,I get the following error message .

I was getting a similar error and switched the URL from the "Old" to "New" and it worked. I hope this helps.

New:

FROM

[http://xxx/tops/sites/bits/QlikView/Qlikview%20QMC%20Tasks%20Prod/Qlikview%20QMC%20Tasks.xlsx]

Old:

// FROM

// [http://xxx/tops/sites/bits/QlikView/Qlikview QMC Tasks Prod/Qlikview QMC Tasks.xlsx]

For me the problem was that the new file that i was trying to import was. xlsx. Evan though in the ETL i put the right extension it still didn't worked. I had to modify the file.
