How to unlock QlikView Community licences documents ?

Hi,

I've installed a QlikView Server V9 SR2 using Qlik Communities licences. When I installed the Server I've loaded a QlikTech example file to test the server. Now I would like to load a real qvw file but the old file is still locked (even if the qvw file is erased :). In the Enterprise Management Console / Tab Documents / Users Documents, if I click on my Server name, is see the actual 3 documents locked (two of them doesn't exists anymore), but I don't see any option to unlock this.

Do you know how to do this ?

Best regards

Copy some document with same name of those you've deleted in the folder QVS search for them, go to Documents panel and remove lock.
If doesn't work, stop QVS service and delete all *.PGO and *.META files, this should work, bye.

Thanks for your answer,

half of the problem is done : for one of my locked documents, I've recreated a fake qvw with the same name and I could unlocked it.
For the second (which is a QlikTech exemple) one, there is a \\ in the url and so the Enterprise Management console consider that
C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ALL USERS\APPLICATION DATA\QLIKTECH\DOCUMENTS\\FILMS.QVW

isn't the same file than

C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ALL USERS\APPLICATION DATA\QLIKTECH\DOCUMENTS\FILMS.QVW

But I don't where does that \\ come from ???

I've tried you're second solution and I've erased all PGO and META file but It didn't solved the problem.

Do you have any other idea ?

Stop the Qlikview Server

Goto C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\QlikTech\Qvs and remove the file FDL.DAT

Start Qlikview Server

Now you are free to choose the new documents.
