RoboTask forum

Hello,

first of all great looking piece of software. I am
currently trying out the trial-version of the program but
tempted to purchase for some of my clients Windows-server
machines.

I have a very small task using macros that I can't get to
work properly though, hope someone could shine some light
on the issue.


Basicly what I want to have automated through the
Scheduler is the following:

1. Opening Mozilla Firefox
2. Browsing to a particular website (bookmark button?)
3. Clicking 'login'-button (credentials are remembered)
4. Clicking 'X'-button
5. Scrolling down the page all the way
6. Clicking 'Y'-button

I can get the above steps to work easily using macros
whenever logged on no problem. It does not seem to work
when not connected to the machine. For clarification it's
concerning a Windows2008R2 system (WHS2011 in specific).

Is it possible to have a macro with mouse movement run
automated on this machine in any way?

I tried running it in application mode, disabling auto-
logoff timers in Remote Desktop settings and
disconnecting the session (making sure I DO NOT
log off the user.) However this does not seem to work.

I know that I'm actually wanting to run a service on
these types of machines, but seeing how I'm using a
movement-macro this will not be possible as far as I
know.

Does anyone have any tips on how to resolve this matter?
I'm not super-familiar with the program yet, could be I
am just not seeing the solution here.

Might be that I'm trying to do these 6 steps with a
totally wrong configuration.


Kind Regards

Ryan
