Macros not working while reloading using QlikView ... - Qlik Community

Report Inappropriate Content · ‎2010-01-27

Hi Guys.

I am working on a qlikview application. In this application I have written a postReload macro so that it runs after each reload. This works fine when the reload is done manually in my system. But once I posted it in the server and tried to reload it again using the QlikView Mangaement console, it is not working. The macro used here is to export data from a List Box(LB03) into a .csv file. Please help me find a solution for this issue. I am attaching the sample application on which I am working.

Regards

Thopz.

There are a couple things you can try: 1) make sure that "Allow macro execution on server" is enabled under QEMC --> System --> QlikView Server --> Security tab; 2) there are sometimes issues with running macros on the server even if it's allowed, so you can try doing a command-line reload and, if that works, set the command line statement as a Supporting Task in QEMC so that Publisher can run it.

Steph,

Since I wrote that post, I've learned that PostReload macros never work server-side. This is not a bug, but is rather an intended feature of Publisher. Take a look at Rob's post here for a workaround, maybe you will find it helpful: http://community.qlik.com/forums/t/17331.aspx

There is no way I know of to run macros in OnPostReload from server. The workaround is to acheive the the same fiunctionality without uisng macro.
