| Vista Ultimate x32 | Task Scheduler Returned Error 0x2 I need to run a batch script to download files via ftp. The script works fine on XP pro, deleting specified files from a local directory and replacing them with downloaded files from an ftp server. When I run the script through Task Scheduler in vista, it only removes the specified files without downloading the replacements. Just to add that I tested the bacth file manually and it worked fine. I need help before I lose my head! |

| Vista Ultimate x64 MAK, OpenSolaris 5, Gentoo 2008.1.... | Re: Task Scheduler Returned Error 0x2 Hmmm - you can manually run the file and it runs OK? Did you allow the batch file privileges in the set up of the task scheduler item? |

| Vista Ultimate x64 MAK, OpenSolaris 5, Gentoo 2008.1.... | Re: Task Scheduler Returned Error 0x2 I am assuming you manually created your task scheduler item for the batch file, so on the first tab (General) did you check Run with highest privileges |

| Vista Ultimate x64 MAK, OpenSolaris 5, Gentoo 2008.1.... | Re: Task Scheduler Returned Error 0x2 Hmmm - OK, then it might be because batch files cannot be 'normally' elevated. have you tried saving it as a .cmd extension instead of a .bat extension to see if it works that way? |

| Vista Ultimate x32 | Re: Task Scheduler Returned Error 0x2 I changed the extension to .cmd but got the same result. The old files were removed as expected but the script won't download from ftp. It returned error code 0x2 |

| Vista Ultimate x64 MAK, OpenSolaris 5, Gentoo 2008.1.... | Re: Task Scheduler Returned Error 0x2 That is weird. Does the script have an exit command at the end of all the commands? Is the batch file located in the directory you want to copy to? I am at a loss - I cannot understand why it would not work by TS and will in live.... Care to post the batch in a code box here so we can see what exactly you're doing, or does it have sensitive material? |
