Hi,

I want to call an AWP page which in turn runs one or more procedures (to send overnight emails and the like).

Everything works fine if I run this page in a browser window, although the page does not close (I have to do that manually). Now I've set up a Windows Task Schedule item and it just doesn't do anything. Not only that, the task stays in a Running state and so will only actually run once.

I tried setting the task up to execute Chrome.exe, with my url as the parameter. I've also tried using a bit of vbscript someone had kindly put up on the web, but neither is working.

I may need to give more information for anyone to help, but I'll probably need to know what other information you need first :)

Cheers
Reg

Hi Reg,

most of the times, these problems come from permission issues, and more precisely from the fact that the USER running the scheduled task/service/webservice/web site/... is NOT the LOGGED IN user, but a different user (system, iUser, etc) set up somewhere, and that this user has a very limited set of permissions by default, mostly for security reasons.

So:
- find what user is running the thing
- then either replace it by another user who has the correct permissions, or add the missing permissions
- be sure to NEVER give ALL permissions to this kind of users, as this opens all kind of security issues

Best regards

Hi Reg,

Don't you have Windev?
Much easier.

Kind regards,

Hi Piet,

I do have Windev, but I don't like the thought of having to duplicate things (project initialisation code, reports etc) from my Webdev project to a Windev project just to be able to have automation.

Still, I guess it may come to that.

Kind Regards
Reg
