Run whether user is logged on or not

2013-09-11 21:00

Under Windows Server 2008 R2, I have a .bat script which uses WinSCP and connects to a simple FTP server.

The script runs successfully:

from the command line under the local administrator account
from the Task Scheduler under the local administrator account with the following settings:
(*) Run only when user is logged on
from the Task Scheduler under the local administrator account with the following settings:
(*) Run whether user is logged on or not
Configure for: Windows Server(tm) 2003, Windows(R) XP, or Windows(R) 2000
But it FAILS:
from the Task Scheduler under the local administrator account with the following settings:
(*) Run whether user is logged on or not
Configure for: Windows Vista(tm), Windows Server(tm) 2008 / Windows(R) 7, Windows Server(tm) 2008 R2

Yes, I have read the FAQ.

The log file says:

Actually, the configuration #3 is enough for me, but it shows a console window if the administrator is logged on.

Please help me make the configuration #4 work.

Thanks for your report.
I have sent you an email with a debug version of WinSCP to address you have used to register on this forum.

Hi, I have the same issue in 5.2.7 (build 3780), anything scripted for SBS2011 (same as SBS2008 R2) scheduled task exits with error code of 1 when set to 'Run whether user is logged on or not'.

The bug does not seem to match the topic here?

@Plasmastorm: It does not look like the same problem.
Have you read this?
My script works fine when executed manually, but fails or hangs when run by Windows Scheduler, SSIS or other automation service. What am I doing wrong?
Have you checked a session log file?

Windows Server Task Scheduler gives 0x1 as Last Run Result

2014-02-19 00:29

I am having a similar problem, and the FAQ above did not seem to help.

I am running Windows Server 2008 R2; WinSCP 5.5.1; The Task Scheduler is running the script from an account with full admin rights;

I wrote a batch script to use WinSCP to connect to an FTP server, copy some files, and then exit. (This used to work until recently...not sure what changed because other admins were introduced). After the local files are uploaded to the FTP server, the batch file copies them to a backup directory.

The Task Scheduler still appears to run all the batch commands, because the backup directory is always updated. However, the FTP is failing.

I turned on logging from the WinSCP client (and script) to try and capture the problem, but I only get a log file when running the batch script--not the task scheduler.

I also configured WinSCP to use the .INI file.

Here is a sample log from a batch file session:

Again, this is the batch script log (run manually). When I run the script from Task Scheduler, it does not generate a log at all. Very frustrating.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Re: Windows Server Task Scheduler gives 0x1 as Last Run Result

2014-02-21 21:13

Hello, I still need help on this issue. Does anyone have any ideas for me? Any insights are greatly appreciated. Again, I am running Windows Server 2008 R2; WinSCP 5.5.1; The Task Scheduler is running the script from an account with full admin rights. I cannot figure out why Task Scheduler is showing a 0x1 returned from WinSCP.

Running the batch file manually works just fine.

Thank you in advance!

Can you try calling winscp.com from the batch file instead of winscp.exe and redirect its output to a file? What the output would be like?

Re: Windows Server Task Scheduler gives 0x1 as Last Run Result

2014-02-28 18:13

@martin: Yes, I tried doing this without change in result: 1) Manually running batch script works and outputs log 2) Running batch script from Task Scheduler results in 0x1 from WinSCP (remaining batch script functions execute correctly)

Here is the batch file:

@echo off
set rxfolder=C:\Localdirectory
set filetypes=*.xml
set backupcmd=move /y 
 
echo %date% %time% >> foc-autotask.log 2>&1
echo ### SFTP files... >> foc-autotask.log 2>&1
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" /log=%rxfolder%\!T!S.log /command "option batch abort" "option confirm off" "open sftp://<unm>:<pwd>@<ftp-server>" "put C:\Localdirectory\*.xml /remotedirectory/" "exit"
 
echo ### Backing up Rx orders... >> foc-autotask.log 2>&1
%backupcmd% "%rxfolder%\%filetypes%" "%rxfolder%\backup\"
 
echo Backup Complete!------------------- >> foc-autotask.log 2>&1
 
exit

Here is the resulting log:

Re: Windows Server Task Scheduler gives 0x1 as Last Run Result

2014-03-03

I wanted to see an console output of winscp.com or of your batch file. Not a log file (well that's useful too).

The log you posted is for manual run or scheduled run? Also there are two runs in the log, one incomplete followed by one complete. Interesting is that the complete run started before the incomplete run finished. What may indicate parallel runs of WinSCP logging into a same log and possibly accessing also other files at the same time. That can be a cause of your problem.

You might want to check outside WinSCP for this one. Check the Microsoft forums. There seem to be huge problems with picking up the correct user context under "user is logged on or not" startup option.
