July 13, 2023: What’s New in Qlik Cloud?

New Qlik Data Gateway – Direct Access version

Qlik Data Gateway – Direct Access 1.4.2 improves overall stability and performance by resolving several issues.

• Changing the ODBC_LOG_LEVEL value in the C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Gateway\configuration.properties file would have no effect.

• Reload would fail with the following error if an active Direct Access gateway connection was not used for several minutes:

  Connector error: Invalid load request (DirectAccess-1006)

  The issue was resolved by not timing out if the session is still alive.

• Loading tables with numerous columns from MySQL and PostgreSQL would sometimes fail with the following error:

  System.InvalidOperationException: Failed to HPACK encode the headers

• When users did not have privileges on a Managed Space containing the Direct Access gateway, the following unclear error would be shown:

  Requested endpoint could not be provisioned due to failure to acquire a load slot: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

  The error message was improved with a more accurate description of the issue.

• Multiple reload attempts would sometimes fail due to excessive memory consumption.

To benefit from the improved stability and performance, customers are encouraged to upgrade at the earliest opportunity. For information about how to upgrade, see Upgrading the Direct Access gateway installation.
