Running a batch

Its running on a W2k8 machine as a service. It runs other tasks no problem and it also runs this task too, but fails at running the batch file - namely calling the vbscript.

Running a batch

If I could accomplish this entirely within Robotask - without the batch files/vbscript then that would be good. I have an old version of robotask and if meant upgrading then I would do that.

Robotask 3.3 2008x64 seivice problems

You're saying that Windows 2008 prvents a service interacting with the desktop yes? Thats why there is no green bordered system tray icon to show it is running? Correct? If I'm logged on as domain admin on the machine - not RDP, then install the software and configure the tasks which run OK, then wh...

Robotask 3.3 2008x64 seivice problems

I installed this yesterday from the console Windows 2008, x64. The service is installed and running However there is no icon in the taskbar to show it is running. It starts and stops ok with no errors. However if I log off the tasks are not processed so I presume the service isn't running properly. ...
