Scheduled tasks stopped working
-
ok, lets try this - schedule new task manually through task scheduler and just pick pbs file that you want to schedule (so not pabackup.exe but .pbs). What happens then?
-
Tried already… but tried it again…
EXACTLY the same behavior. User logged on runs great.
User not logged on dead task… -

User not logged on dead task…wait - so it runs completly fine with option user logged in?
-
Yes. Like it did before.
Option: Run only when user logged on - runs
Option: Run whether user is logged on or not - doesn’t run -
Yes. Like it did before.
Option: Run only when user logged on - runs
Option: Run whether user is logged on or not - doesn’t runso task scheduler cant schedule task unless user is logged on, that means something is wrong with task schedulers starting tasks as another user. I guess we need to google for solutions. I wonder if it might be some service that is disabled.

I will try something different. I hope I know where the problem is. I had a change in die admin password. I think the tasks stores the passwords locally. I guess task scheduler has a bug when passwords are changing.
So I will create a new backup user and create the jobs again. Hopefully that works…
-
Ok. Here we go again.
New User, completely new jobs, PAB starts… Does nothing…Going mad…!!
-
Ok… things are getting worse and worse.
Now the pbs files will be emptied when they don’t run correctly.
So for every test I have to create new pbs files.Any further help?

dont know what else… we could try having an special debug version of PowerArchiver Backup so we can go step by step and determine what could be the issue?
-
ok… so lets try this… if its helps you…
I thought I’d be clever and leave the user logged on.
PA Backup error message…
Access violation at address 77A58F1A in module oleaut32.dll. Read of address 0000047C -
OK… Tried on another server. Same issue. Seems to me that the scheduler functionality is broken. PAB starts does nothing…
Please send me asap the debug version. -

Please send me asap the debug version.i have spent an hour on Win2k3 Server trying to reproduce this…
How was PowerArchiver installed on the server? There has to be something specific in the way you are using something, as on whatever computer we try, it works fine. There has to be an reason.
Debug version can be ready within 10-15 days and it is quite pain to setup, there is no easy solution for that.

We had one german customer with similar complaint - it turned out permissions issue - it could not access remote drive when run from isolated account, but local folders worked fine… I am sure you tried compressing to local drives as we said before?
