Bob:

I have an application that runs every night at 11:30 PM. It reads a text file generated by another system parses the data and then inserts the appropriate values into 3 different tables doing data integrity checks, it has been running reliably for almost a year.

A couple of thing to check
Is the application running over a network?

Does a user need to be logged in and have access privileges?

Does the network have scheduled routine maintenance that would disconnect the user or other wise conflict in time with your application?

One way to check your code is to place the commands:

SET MESSAGES ON

SET ERROR MESSAGES ON

SET DEBUG ON

DEBUG TRACE

At the top of you code and schedule it to start in a couple of minutes. When it starts it will be in the TRACE mode and then you can execute the commands one line at a time and hopefully you will see where you problem is as all messages will be displayed. If you are running the Scheduler under Windows XP, I believe that it is required that the workstation have a login and password, otherwise it will not execute.

Javier,

Subject: [RBG7-L] - Scheduled Task puzzle

 

Any one have an idea why a command file would run fine from an R> but not from the task scheduler?  I have a command file that I have set to run every hour in the scheduler.  When the scheduler runs the file, everything seems to work OK but an insert command does not execute. (Does not give an error, nor does it insert the records)  If I run the same file from the R>, the insert command executes fine.  I get no errors, the insert simply does not work.  This is a real puzzler for me.

Thanks,

-Bob
