Scheduled Task Not Running in ColdFusion 10 Developer

I'm pretty sure it would prevent CF from reaching the page.

^_^

First, look in the CF logs. There maybe an explanation for what’s amiss.

Second, you say it’s “supposed to create a log file”. Do you mean you’re doing a CFLOG in the page being called? Or do you mean you have the cf admin set to log scheduled tasks? Or both. What does the schedule.log say is happening?

Third, do you have the scheduled task set to save its output to a file? If so, what does that file say?

Fourth, when you say you ran the URL in a browser, do you mean on the server? Or on your desktop? It would be important to run it on the server, to really equate to what CF would do.

Fifth, what happens if you run the URL in a CFHTTP in a test page on the server? If you output the cfhttp.filecontent variable, what does it show?

There are many reasons that a scheduled task could fail even though the same page “runs in a browser”. There’s an answer somewhere in one of these techniques.

Let us know what you find.

I am having the same issue as the OP.  Did you fix this issue?
