Copied task fails to run (Read 2836 times)

Hogg YaBB Newbies Offline Posts: 3	Copied task fails to run Jun 16^th, 2016 at 2:10am Have a task that monitors a directory and when a new file is added it runs a bat. I have copied this task and changed the directory being watched, but it does not run. In the logs it doesn't seem to detect the files in the directory. Has anyone else run into this problem?

Hi,

Not sure what is happening. Can you stop the task, enable "Debug" and run it. When it should have detected a file, stop it and create a backup. Email me that backup (gert at gdpsoftware.com) and tell me the name of the file it should have detected.

Seems that the setting of debug was not reason task run, but just the restarting of the task. It seems to run for a little while after the restart and then stops working for no apparent reason.

It is a bit of a guess but your task is set to run your bat script for new files (FILENEW) and once after 240 seconds (QUIET event). I see in your backup the script is called for the QUIET event and the script does not return. Your script probably hangs on the QUIET event.
