Qlik: Section Access Issue

Hi,

I have section access in the following format:

Section Access;

USER_DIM:

LOAD 'USER' as ACCESS,

     USER_NAME as NTNAME,

     USER_GROUP as PROJECT

  FROM

....\user.txt

(txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ',', msq);

CONCATENATE

LOAD * INLINE [

   ACCESS, NTNAME, PROJECT

  'ADMIN', 'MyUser',*

];

Section Application;

'MyUser' exists on the user.txt file as well. Am i doing this right?

After the initial load, the file fails to load again and I have to redeploy the app from local directory. I assume section access is causing problems. The file security is as below:

Just wanted to check if the security is okay.

MyUser should not be in both the user.txt and the INLINE, because then it is being defined as both USER and ADMIN, which is incorrect.

Hello Sir Rob,

I am truly honoured that you have responded to my query.

I had suspected that as an issue and would test the suggested alternate at the first opportunity. I am however trying to automate QV reload using command line utilities but I have a doubt: the user that runs the reload script, does it need to be an Admin on the app? I guess I know the answer but am looking for 2nd opinion.

Kind Regards

Yes, the reloading userid should be an ADMIN.
