Trying to use the runwait command with a scheduled task

[gte]

Does anyone have any idea what I've coded wrong?

The box at the bottom is just for me trying to troubleshoot and see the output???

Here is the gui (very very simple)

expandcollapse popup

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>



$Form3 = GUICreate("Test Scheduled Task Creation", 370, 291, 1677, 414)
$schtaskcreatebutton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Create Task", 144, 64, 91, 73, 0)
$cmdfiletext = GUICtrlCreateEdit('', 16, 184, 337, 41, BitOR($ES_AUTOVSCROLL,$ES_AUTOHSCROLL,$ES_WANTRETURN))

GUICtrlSetData(1, $cmdfiletext)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

GUICtrlSetOnEvent($schtaskcreatebutton, "createtask")

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd





func createtask()
        
        
        $server = 'server'
        $schtaskusername = 'admin'
        $schtaskpassword = 'p@ssw1rd'
        $schtaskfrequency = 'once'
        $schtaskname = 'Update'
        $schtaskrunfile = 'd:\temp\updatetask.exe'
        $schtaskstartime = '08:10:00'
        $schtaskstartdate = '01/01/2010'

;$schtaskcreate = RunWait('cmd.exe', '%systemroot%\system32\', 'schtasks /create /s ' & '\\' & $server & ' /u ' & $schtaskusername &  ' /p ' & $schtaskpassword & ' /ru ' & $schtaskusername & ' /rp ' & $schtaskpassword & ' /sc ' & $schtaskfrequency & ' /tn ' & $schtaskname & ' /tr ' & $schtaskrunfile & ' /ST ' & $schtaskstartime & ' /SD ' & $schtaskstartdate) 
    
        
EndFunc

You can not have GUIGetMsg() working with OnEvent-Mode... GUICtrlSetOnEvent()

You will need to go one direction or the other, not both

For anyone that just wants to test it outside of the GUI, here is what I finally got to work

Put your own values in of course

$server = 'servername'
        $schtaskusername = 'domain\user'
        $schtaskpassword = 'password'
        $schtaskfrequency = 'once'
        $schtaskname = '"Library list update"'; MAKE SURE THIS POS HAS QUOTES OR A SINGLE WORD NAME!!! I WASTED 2 HOURS BECAUSE OF THIS
        $schtaskrunfile = 'd:\temp\updatetask.exe'
        $schtaskstartime = '08:10:00'
        $schtaskstartdate = '01/01/2010'

$val1 = RunWait('schtasks.exe /create /s ' & '\\' & $server & ' /u ' & $schtaskusername &  ' /p ' & $schtaskpassword & ' /ru ' & $schtaskusername & ' /rp ' & $schtaskpassword & ' /sc ' & $schtaskfrequency & ' /tn ' & $schtaskname & ' /tr ' & $schtaskrunfile & ' /ST ' & $schtaskstartime & ' /SD ' & $schtaskstartdate, @WindowsDir)

I referenced that before I posted, but I'm guessing I missed something, I'll check again, thanks
