Tom, Looks like it might not be finding your start up file and variables are not being initialized What settings are you using on the scheduler? Is this a compiled application? If you are running from a network file and you are not signed in, the server path might not be defined. If you are using a login, it must have a password. To debug, you can turn TRACE ON in your application and set up the time to a minute or two ahead and then wait until the scheduler starts it; you should then be able to trace the code.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of TOM HART Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2011 10:29 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Windows task manager question I have an autobackup exe that I have been using for along time. Basically I use Windows task manager to run the file at a certain time each night. This has worked like a charm until I tried to run it on a new machine. It works fine if you run the file directly from the folder but if it tries to run from the task manager I get numerous messages like: Rbase engine driver- \E-error-Invalid configuration file Error - unrecognized global variable in expression Error - expression cannot be evaluated Any ideas why this happens in task manager and not when run directly Tom Hart
