I am trying to add section access to my qvw, but the document failed inexplicably and for some reason I can't get the document to reload. When I try to remove section access, my document still doesn't reload and it also doesn't generate a logfile (even though I have that box checked in document settings).
I have been reading these forums for days without a solution and I am out of ideas - hopefully someone can help. Here is what I've tried:
1. I made sure that 'Initial Data reduction based on Section Access' is turned off.
2. I've checked the log of the QEMC since a normal logfile isn't generated. It says "Error: Document open call failed. The document might require username and password."
3. I have read the manual on Section Access to make sure that I am doing it right (since that is my long term plan). I have done section access many times before on other dashboards so I know that it's possible and how to do it out of an Excel file using Windows Active Directory.
4. I tried deleting the meta and shared files and restarting the services on the Qlikview Server.
5. I tried making a copy of the document locally and deleting the copy on the server and uploading again, setting up all the job permissions.
At this point I just want to be able to reload the document with or without section access to gain a foothold.
When I open the file locally it asks for my username and then it will open. So it's somehow keeping the section access intact even though I have commented it out.
The section access under Data Protection is NOT checked (I've never used that - even for my other docs that work with section access).
