Hello,
I have 2 questions regarding task creation in QV 9, as i am a little confused.
In a nutshell, I am in the process of testing out a bunch of new loads through 9.0 and want to be sure I am creating my chain-tasks in the most efficient way possible.
thanks in advance,
James
PS Where can i view the log files to figure out where errors occured? I.E. where do i go to enable log creation and where are those files automatically stored?
1. If you have a publisher license key then use the enterprise management console (QEMC). It allows for many distribution task possibilities.
2. Correct.
Logfiles can be set in the QEMC on the System > Distribution Services > General Tab under Application Data Folder. By default it pushes the logs here:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\QlikTech\Publisher\Qlikview Distribution Service
They should be under the \1\Log\ folder in dated folders showing each task id and name with a tasklog.txt and/or documentlog.txt.

Thanks Karl. This was very helpful. One followup to the log file question. Where can i view details for the WARNINGS i get when running a task? i just ran one that got warnings, but i dont see warnings anywhere in the log.
Thanks,
James
Same place in the QEMC as above set the Logging Level to Debug logging.
Also be aware that doing this will send everything to the logs so the log folder will get very big very fast. It is recommended that you either move it off of the system drive (c) or you can right click the log folder and under general properties >advanced select compress contents to save disk space as it is only text files.
