Task Scheduler

[Zach]

Hello,

When I look under task scheduler the process still shows up as running but
nothing has happened. Upon reboot there are no error messages but if I try
to run it again the same situation ocurrs, the scheduler hangs on the status
'running'. Event viewer shows nothing. This is a file backup routine I'm
trying to run, from local to a network drive.

Thanks in advance.

I suspect that when you say "nothing has happened", this is not
actually the case. Add some simple diagnostics to really see
what's happening:

@echo off
echo %date% %time% Start of job > c:\test.log
echo Username=%Username% >> c:\test.log
c:\winnt\system32\ntbackup.exe /.... 1>>c:\test.log 2>c:\test.err
echo %date% %time% End of job >> c:\test.log

Now have a look at the two log files, then report the result here.
