Task Scheduler for Updates

Fri Nov 25, 2016 3:36 pm

Hi guys,

I am using Enterptrise license to create new task for Updates. I Configure Task from the link in Updater Execution with the attached settings. The issue I have is that the task will only work the first time and update is required as it runs under the logon user e.g. MYDOMAIN\mark.

Then after the application has updated and I do another update the user in the Task Scheduler changes to \SYSTEM and then the task never runs as it returns a (0x5)

Ok I found the offender. The cause of this is if you check the Install update without elevation in Update Installer it does this. I unchecked this and the problem has gone away but now the issue is that when task scheduler finds an update it shows the GUI?

Hi,

Please keep in mind that this is the normal behavior. Updates can be installed without elevation only under the SYSTEM account that shows no UI. If the updater is started under another account, it will not be able to install the updates without elevation.

Hi Eusebiu,

I understand that but why doesn't the job run when it is under the system account?

How can I set the Task SCheduler via the UI like the attachment before to run under SYSTEM from the beginning?

Hi,

If you want the task to run under the "System Account" leave the "User" and "Password" fields empty as mentioned in the "Account Settings Tab" article.

Hi,

Well in my attached screenshot I have left the username and password blank but the job doesn't run and always returns a 0x5 error meaning access is denied...or not?

Hi Guys,

Any ideas please??? With what you suggested it creates the initial task with my credentials. After first update it then changes to \SYSTEM and cannot run.

Hi,

In the screenshot that you attached in your first post, I see that the "User" field is set to the "[%UserDomain]\[LogonUser]" value, but that field should be empty. Can you remove that value and also check the "Run with highest privileges" option and see if it works?

I just deleted the exe. But the issue still remains it doesn't update even after I did what you said. The task still return a 0x5 error code.

Hi guys,

I am sorry to say but your support has disappointed me? We recently upgraded to enterprise and thought we would received great support but have not. Cannot understand why assisting us on this matter hasn't been dealt with in a manor to justify the cost of your product.

Not happy about this!!!
