Hi,

We bought the new WINCRON version and installed it as a service. I entered the command to trigger the job in user.tg file. But, it looks that it does not run the job.

{
-name RUN-URL
-start -cron * 3 * * *
-command -shell http://127.0.0.1/xyz/timedurl/emai.taf
}

But, this job does not seem to kick of at around 3am? What could be the problem.

Hi Jon,

I ran your script and it worked fine.
Are you getting an error message or something?

Try this,

1. Stop/Start the WinCron Service. This will cause WinCron to reload the user.tg file.

2. Double click the time at the bottom right of your screen to bring up the clock program.

3. Advance the time forward to 2:58 AM the following day and hit apply.

4. Now wait for 3:00 AM and record any messages displayed in the WinCron window.

5. Copy/Paste the complete contents of the WinCron output window here so I can see what's going on.

Your script looks good, and as I mentioned, it worked fine for me. I would like to see the WinCron output to see what's going on.
