QMC Supporting Task not executed properly

[anuj_sharma]

We've created a QMC Task in System->Supporting Tasks->QDS@**->External Program

and have given path of the .bat file, which contains following command

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\Qv.exe" /l "E:\path_to_my_qlikview_document.qvw"

exit

my_qlikview_document has a macro written inside, which is triggered post-reload in document settings

Running .bat file manually executes the commands written inside successfully.

Running the created Supporting Task doesn't do the same.

Can anybody help figuring out the reasons behind this behaviour?

Try using /R instead of /I

Take a look at this post by Tim Benoit.

I've tried using the /r switch in the batch file but this doesn't seem to have made  any difference.

Also, I do need the application to not be auto-saved and closed by the /r switch after reload because I need to run a macro triggered post-reload, hence the /l switch.

Also, the macro doesn't work after using the/r switch in the batch file

Does your macro save and close the qvw after it completes?

[anuj_sharma]

Yes, macro contains below two lines

ActiveDocument.Save
ActiveDocument.GetApplication.Quit

Can you run the batch file manually using the serviceID which run the QDS ? . Looks like the prompt which the QVW asks when you use a macro should be oked or suppressed .

[anuj_sharma]

Can you please provide steps to test this?

I had tested the batch file just by double-clicking.

Try following the below steps

1) Right click on the batch file and select "Run As different user"
2) Enter the serviceID which runs the QDS and check if there is any pop-up from the macro .
3) If you get the pop-up select the correct option and click ok to run it .
4) After this is done run from QMC and see if it works

How do I find the serviceID which runs the QDS?

[anuj_sharma]

Any idea how 'serviceID which runs the QDS' can be known?
