Hi grant,

you wrote:
does the task scheduler run independently of applications running on the server?
i.e. if i'm calling task.cfm from the scheduler, does the task
scheduler 'walk the tree' to find task.cfm's application.cfm?

Yes, it walks.

does the cfschedule tag work any different?

No.


Effectively scheduled pages are run as if they were browsed-to with a URL typed into a browser. You have to make sure everything is correct, if you are running from a framework, FuseBox or whatever, you have to make sure that the page runs in its own right, etc.

Its our most common error with folk hosting sites with us, their scheduled tasks break. In our own apps we often have all of the scheduled pages in their own folder and it has its Application.cfm, possibly including all or part of the site's main app.cfm, to make sure that all is hunky-dory in scheduled mode.
