Scheduled Task result 0x0

[B Nieds]

Hi:

We have XP Home. I have set a scheduled task to run daily. Scheduler says
the task has run and a result code 0X0 is listed but I know the task has
failed. Does anyone know if this result code has any meaning?

The scheduled task is set to run from the limited user account with runas
set to the admin username and password. The task, if successfull, will
update the anti-virus definitions (the definitions are saved to disk daily)
and this is not happening.

Thanks
Bill

Did you supply the JOB with an administrative user and password ?

Hi David:

Thanks for the reply. Yes Admin user and Password entered into scheduled
task and tested as to be correct by manually running task from within
limited user using RunAs.

It may or may not have a meaning. It's program specific. Normally 0 =
means no errors but if the program doesn't use it it will always be 0.

Hi David:

Hmmm! If I sign on as the limited user and run (using runas ) the program,
successfully, with the same parameters as the scheduler should not the
scheduler also succeed in running the program?

Thanks
Bill
