Spotfire Web Player 6.5, 7.0

Description

Even though an analysis is cached in Scheduled Updates, if it contains On-Demand data tables, these will need to be validated when opening the report. Normally this does not cause any issues. A delay in network traffic can cause significant delays in how fast the analysis will open, even though it is cached.

Environment

Spotfire Web Player, versions 6.5.x and 7.0.x.

Resolution

Steps to turn off "Validate On-Demand For Each User".

1). Confirm that the Web Player has the appropriate hotfix, HF-011 or higher for 6.5.2 and HF-002 or higher for 7.0.0.

2). Open the Web Player configuration file - Web.config - in an editor.

NOTE: this file is located in the Web Players webroot directory, for example:
C:\Program Files\Tibco\Spotfire Web Player\7.0\webroot\Web.config

3). Find the following line:

<Spotfire.Dxp.Application.Properties.Settings>

4). Under this line, insert the following:

<setting name="ScheduledUpdates_ValidateOnDemandForEachUser" serializeAs="String">

<value>False</value>

</setting>

5). Save the configuration and restart IIS.
