Execute after

[iconbill]

I set this in the execute after field: 'HTTP GET www.itsupport.nl'

but this is not working. I tried also adding a '#' in the front, but does not change a thing, i see nothing.

I tried this on two different machines. One was Windows 7 32bits and the other Windows 7 64bits.

And how is this going to work when it's installed as a service ánd you have 2 users logged in on the computer? I hope the active user is only getting the 'execute' command?

That works fine. It downloads 18448 Bytes from your site.

What do you mean with "I see nothing"? There is nothing to see. The URL is accessed, and your statistics can count it. But nothing is done with the retrieved data.

Maybe you need to read your logs differently or wait until the next day before you can see the request.

I was hoping the given link would open in a browser, so the user would see the page.
(I tryed to execute an url, after the scheduler was stopped, so the user would understand the backup was finished)

But you are executing the url in your program, and the user will never see it. Why you would use this invisible execute anyway?

I also tried to execute a .vbs file, with a simple code, but then i see also nothing.
(wscript.echo 'backup ended!')

Can you give me an example (code) to get some kind of information screen/popup screen, so i can see the scheduler is started and a message when the scheduler has ended?

The purposes of HTTP GET are:

in execute before: trigger a web server to generate a backup file for superflexible to download.

in execute before or after: allow your web server to do some statistics.

If the scheduler is running as a service, you cannot show anything to the user. Services are totally isolated.
