Why do i always get The property or field has not been initialized?

Hello i try to populate an Array with specific fields. But i always get: The property or field has not been initialized. It has not been requested or the request has not been executed. It may need to be explicitly requested. I am on Sharepoint 2013 and i use the internal names from sharepoint. I assume that there is something wrong with my Caml Query.

Here is the Code i use:

 function retrieveListItems(siteUrl) {

        var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext(siteUrl);
        var oList = clientContext.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle('MatrixFiles');

        var camlQuery = new SP.CamlQuery();
        camlQuery.set_viewXml('<View><ViewFields><FieldRef Name="LinkFilename" /><FieldRef Name="WebCountry" /><FieldRef Name="WebDepartment" /><FieldRef Name="FileLeafRef" /></ViewFields><Query><OrderBy><FieldRef Name="LinkFilename" /></OrderBy></Query></View>');
        this.collListItem = oList.getItems(camlQuery);

        clientContext.load(collListItem);

        clientContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQuerySucceeded), Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQueryFailed));

    }

And here the other part with the array:

function onQuerySucceeded(sender, args) {

    var listItemInfo = '';
    var array = [];

    var listItemEnumerator = this.collListItem.getEnumerator();

    while (listItemEnumerator.moveNext()) {
        var oListItem = listItemEnumerator.get_current();
        console.log(oListItem);

        array.push(oListItem);



    }

    alert(oListItem.get_item('LinkFilename'));


}

The strange thing is the array gets filled with SPListItems but when i try to use a specific field in an alert the error happens. No clue why....

Any help would be great and thx for your Time.

BTW i used the SP Caml Query helper for this.

Try using FileLeafRef. LinkFilename is a computed field which does not work.

I imagine this error is occurring because the sp.js script has not been loaded.

Try:

  //Insert this right after your opening script tag
   ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(retrieveListItems, "sp.js");

   //then your function as written above   
   function retrieveListItems(siteUrl) { etc...};
