Scheduled tasks stopped working
-
go to task scheduler, right click on the task and run it…. does it work then?
-
No it doesn’t
Tasks starts… does nothing…
-
but if you run same exact pbs manually it works fine?
(doubleclicking on it from explorer) -
Yes clicking from PA application works superb…!!

then something has to be wrong with task scheduler side of things… check one of the schedules, maybe it is running under wrong user or something similar.
-
Already checked several times…!! Can’t it be that there is something wrong with the PA Schedule string?
User is domain admin. So it has to work…It it would run under wrong user it wouldn’t start or am I wrong there?
When I run the scheduled task even a tmp file is created but then nothing. No idea why…

did you try manually to schedule pbs starting? that might give us few answers.
-
Yes I did… no success either…
Put the whole string in cmd box… Error box comes up… The system cannot find the file specified… pbs will be emptied then… Has to do a pbs again… Think this is a bug…
-
cant you browse to the pbs? That will make sure it works properly…
-
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?
