Windows Scheduler

[Guest]

Hi ,

I facing an unknow issue in Windows Scheduler. For example , I create a
scheduler and name it as "Copy Files" on 01-Jan-2005 and I set it to run on
daily basis.
This task will copy some xml files from another server shared folder. The
scheduler able to run on 01-Jan-2005 . But on 02-Jan-2005 , the "Copy Files"
task failed to process.
I try to set the password and schedule it on another time for the same day
(02-Jan-2005) and it works.
I monitor it on 03-Jan-2005 again , the "Copy Files" does not run. Is it
the security issue or something else ? I log in as domain user and this user
has a full control rights. Any solution on this ?

Thank you.

There could be several reasons why the tasks fail. Most of them
are immediately obvious when you add some logging, e.g. like so:

@echo off
echo %date% %time% Start of task > c:\test.log
echo User=%UserName%, Path=%path% >> c:\test.log
xcopy.exe /.. /.. /.. SourceFolder TargetFolder\ 1>>c:\test.log
2>c:\test.err
echo ErrorLevel of xcopy.exe=%ErrorLevel% >> c:\test.log
echo %date% %time% End of task >> c:\test.log

Now run this batch file under the Task Scheduler, then have a look
at the two log files!

Also, the Task Schedular has it's logging.

Start Windows Explorer
Got to My Computer \ Contrl Panel \ Scheduled Tasks
In the menu, select Advanced \ View Log

If the task even doesn't get started, here you can find out why not.

Run gpedit.msc, then give the account used for the
scheduled job the right to run as a batch job.

You need to do a small amount of scratching to get there . . .
Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Windows Settings /
Security Settings / Local Policy / User Rights / Log on as a batch job.
