I am trying to utilize the <cfschedule> tag to send an
email reminder to my users. I've copied the code from my 4th
edition coldfusion manual vebatim but nothing happens. The book
makes it look simple, but does not go into any detail. My first
page is the scheduler.cfm page. It reads like this:
<cfschedule action="Update"
task="send_email_1"
operation="HTTPRequest"
url="
https://hrweb/epms/30d_email_1.cfm"
startdate="04/21/06"
starttime="08:00:00"
enddate="04/25/06"
interval="Daily">
</cfschedule>
The page I wish to activate is the 30d_email_1.cfm page. When
I open the 30d_email_1.cfm page in my browser and press reload, it
sends the requested email.
I don't control the server but I am told this feature is not
being blocked. How does cfschedule run the task and what am I
missing.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
