Crunchie as Scheduled Task

Wierd problem - I did have this all working OK but now an issue.

I noticed my scheduled task was not working. When I 'manually run' the task, the Taskeng window shows me that it's started Crunchie, then the next line suggests :-

<Read Config> unable to open configuration file ./crunchie.ini No file or Dirctory

and the Configurator GUI opens as originally (default) installed - no pathing, etc


If I run Crunchie either from the command line or the GUI it works fine.

Obviously a pathing problem for the .ini from the sheduled task?

Is there an easy fix, or should I bite the bullet & Uninstall/Reinstall Crunchie?

You could write a simple batch file and schedule that instead.

All it should contain is:

cd c:\<path to crunchie>
crunchie.exe

Though I don't know why it would be complaining the way it is. Just make sure you cd to the install dir before you run it.

On second thought, in the scheduled task I think there is an option for a startup folder. Make sure it is set to the crunchie install dir and that should fix it.

Cheers,

Arkay.

Re: Crunchie as Scheduled Task

Thanks Arkay - Yep, populated the 'Start In' field in Task Manager & that seems to have done the job (although when I first set it up earlier in the week I hadn't done this & it was running fine??).
