Using AppDesigner to create an action set which includes several data exports and shell scripts which create a log file. This runs fine within App Designer and also if it's scheduled via Toad (using Windows Task Scheduler). However if the following statement is run from the command line:
AT 14:00 "C:\Program Files\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\Toad.exe" -a "ActionsetName"
The scheduled task starts at 14:00 but just seems to keep running. Toad.exe does exist in the task manager but there is no icon displayed in the task bar and no reports are being produced.
When scheduling a task using the 'AT' command, this runs the application under user 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM' - not the current user. Since the file holding the App Designer's actions is stored in the current user's application data folder, the toad.exe running under 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM' does not know of it's existence. Toad is only supported running as a Power User or Administrator - not at this lower level and requires the existence of an application data folder.
Schedule the task within Toad only, which will schedule it to run as the current user.
