Ctrl-Shift-B key combination opens corresponding qlikview application instead of reloading it

I have trouble making InQlik Tools to open my application. My guess is that there is an issue with the string command for opening qv.exe.

I get this error both when I use the default path for builds and when I point it out using
//#!C:\My path\My report.qvw OR
//#!..\My relative path\My report.qvw

Note: Running the script (Ctrl-B) works fine without any issues.

I attached the log that is presented in Sublime Text when pressing Ctrl-Shift-B

'c:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. [Finished in 0.0s with exit code 1] [cmd: ['cmd', '/C', 'c:\\Program Files\\QlikView\\qv.exe', 'C:\\Users\\vegarn\\Documents\\My report\\3_Load\\fdw\\Report.qvw']] [dir: C:\Users\vegarn\Documents\My report\3_Load\fdw] [path: C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;D:\app\vegarn\product\12.1.0\client_2;D:\app\vegarn\product\12.1.0\client_1;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\HP Performance Advisor]

Could you manually place file with name QlikView script.sublime-settings and contents:
{
"qv_executable": ""c:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe""
}

into you User package directory (Menu command Preferences \ Browse packages, then down into directory User), and check it again?

Is this you want me to try? Add the line into the QlikView script.sublime-settings?
My complete file will look like this:
{
"translate_tabs_to_spaces": true,
"tab_size": 2,
"open_external": ["xls","xlsx","mdb"],
"qv_executable": ""c:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe""
}

When adding this line I'm unable to save the file.

Yes, my fault. Slash () shoud be escaped so line should look

"qv_executable": ""c:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe""

vadimtsushko commented

Urggg github eats my slashes

vadimtsushko commented

Try

"qv_executable": "\"c:\\Program Files\\QlikView\\qv.exe\""

I moved over to another environment and I am no longer able to reproduce this error.
You should probably close this issue.
