[SOLVED] shell_exec schtasks password

[rcmn]

Server config :win2k3/apache/PHP 5.2.1

 

if i login via remote control and run this command in a prompt

schtasks /create /tn mytask01 /tr c:\taskas.bat /sc once /st 16:32:00 /sd 10/19/2007 /ru MyDomaine\myusername /rp mypassword

A task will be created and run properly.

 

but if i tried via PHP using the following 2 different options a task is created but the password is not set in the task.

So the task will failed to run.

 

$echos = shell_exec("schtasks /create /tn mytask01 /tr c:\taskas.bat /sc once /st 16:32:00 /sd 10/19/2007 /ru MyDomaine\myusername /rp mypassword");

i get the following error in apache log:

WARNING: The scheduled task "mytask01" has been created, but may not run because the account information could not be set.

 

 

 

$runCommand = "schtasks /create /tn mytask01 /tr c:\taskas.bat /sc once /st 16:32:00 /sd 10/19/2007 /ru MyDomaine\myusername /rp mypassword";
$WshShell = new COM("WScript.Shell");
$output = $WshShell->Exec($runCommand)->StdOut->ReadAll;

 

I don't get any errors log in apache

 

For troubleshooting :

-I tried to run the apache service as locale admin account or domain admin account. (still doesn't fix the pbm).

-tried different syntax (found in google).(no better)

 

[rcmn]

fixed using

 

schtasks /create /tn mytask01 /tr c:\\taskas.bat /sc once /st 16:32:00 /sd 10/19/2007 /ru MyDomaine\\myusername /rp mypassword

 

it was a syntax issue on my part.
