Scheduled tasks stopped working

Sure I can… in cmd box and explorer…

dont confuse me :-). I mean in the task scheduler> New Task. Create new task and then browse to pbs script and set it up there, manually.
///
For command prompt you probably did not full path properly (which is not important, disregard command prompt).
-
Created new task. Gave the script to start. PA will be started and does nothing…
-
strange… i am trying to re-create similar situation and i cant.
i mean if it works manually, then it means backup works… but also if it tasks starts it means task scheduler works.
only thing that comes to my mind is possibility that user under which backup is running from scheduler might not have all the rights - can you check to make sure that it should be running under same user as you?
-
It does already. I start tasks as Domain admin… It worked for soo long absolutely great!!
After the PA update I had to do all pbs files new and since then everything is screwed…I hava also no idea…

this happened after you updated your PA? I mean you updated your PA after you reported the issue ;-).
-
if it started happening after an update to PA, try downgrading to older version of PA that worked fine? It does not make sense for it to work from explorer but not from scheduler, if it is PA related issue…
-
Can’t you do your own scheduler… :-) Had some time ago also problems with the windows scheduler…
-
OK… today something very stange happened… As always scheduler did start the PA. Stuck. Now I think I know why. It seems that in lates PA there is a problem with the path or something. Whenever I start pbs from PA now it says: The system cannot finde the specified file. Very strange. I try another path to the pbs files… Maybe that works…
-
OK… Didn’t work either… I am pretty sure it is something with PA. Other scheduled tasks work great. I use Windows 2008 Sp2… Maybe there is an issue with that.??
-
could you add admin rights to the scheduled task?
-
I had this problem when I tried to backup stuff from the program files folder. PA needed admin rights
-
Yes I did. Task is running as domain admin.
-
Did a complete uninstall. Installed latest version. Configured everything new.
Still not working. Like always. Task is starting and then… nothing happens…
-
sometimes admin does have access to all the files, thats certainly the case in vista (if files are owned by another user, and win server 2008 is based on vista).
Why dont you create simple pbs that compresses 1.txt file from C:\1\ folder for instance
and try running that through scheduler. See if that works.
-
Tried and didn’t work. Event tried another scheduler (VisualCron). Same behavior. Task starts and nothing happens…

well thats crazy ;-)
can you send us one of those pbs scripts, zipped to support @ conexware . com, and we will try it here.

Mail is out…

So what is the right command to put in scheduler
something like pabackup.exe /silent /…/blabla.pbs
right?
