1 QlikView November 2017 SR5 Release notes What s new in QlikView November 2017 SR5 QlikView November 2017 SR5 includes the following updates: Change in the setting for Cleaning trigger records in Trigger_guid.xml The hidden setting TriggerStatesKeepTimeInHours has been added to the QVDistributionService.exe.config file located in C:\Program Files\QlikView\Distribution Service. It replaces the setting called TriggerStatesKeepTime. This setting allows you to decide after how many hours old entries in recorded in Trigger_guid.xml files are deleted. By default, TriggerStatesKeepTimeInHours deletes entries older than 24 hours. Trigger_guid.xml files record entries for each task execution, and are stored in: C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\DistributionService\Triggers. TriggerStatesKeepTimeInHours helps lowering the size of Trigger_guid.xml files, which can grow to MBs, especially when tasks are run frequently.

2 Change Notes sharing settings for AJAX clients For AJAX clients, it is now possible to change the default value for who is allowed to see a note connected to an object. To change the sharing settings, you must modify the following entry in the settings.ini file: NoteSharingDefaultAccess=0 Only the creator can see the note. NoteSharingDefaultAccess=1 The note visibility is set to public and anyone can see the object (Default setting). NoteSharingDefaultAccess=2 Visibility is restricted to specific users. New procedure for changing time-out setting for QlikView Server From QlikView November 2017, the procedure for modifying time-out setting for QlikView Server has changed. To set a time-out period different from the default settings of 60 seconds, you must modify the QVWebServer.exe.config file by adding the setting SocketTimeOutInSeconds followed by the desired time-out period. The QVWebServer.exe.config file is located in C:\Program Files\QlikView\Server\Web Server. The previous time-out setting QvsTimeout, located in C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\WebServer\Config.xml, is no longer applicable. If you had previously modified QvsTimeout to apply a custom time-out period, you must set the same value for SocketTimeOutInSeconds in the QVWebServer.exe.config file.
