Error Calling application via OLE ALVIEWER.APP

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Using Document Access (Tcode-OAD5), have created Document Type to Attach Document through GOS. I am able to attach document through GOS. But during retrieval part, when am trying to display the attached document from Attachment List facing error as " Error Calling application via OLE ALVIEWER.APP". This error is coming expect PDF file. Only PDF file am able to display.

I have gone through OAA3, OAA4, SOLE and OAG1 settings. I have compared this settings with other customer for which have done this Document Access and its working fine for other customers.

Could you please suggest what other things I have to check to avoid this error. For reference attached the error screenshot.

We need to cross check the settings in OAG1 t-code.

Just for anyone facing this error, I was able to sort it by changing communication type from OLE to standard communication for the affected document clasess either in 'Display Stored Document' or 'Retrieval Frontend' or 'Display Local File'.
