I have a widget I built a couple of years ago to allow our accounting
staff to disable the link to our online timecard system.
Pretty simple, I set a server.kronos value to true or false. True the
link is live, false a maintenance message is displayed.
We have recently changed the back-up system and would now like to shut
down access to the timecards from 1:00 AM - 2:00 AM, while the back-ups
are running.
I pulled the code out of my manual widget and separated it into to
files. KronosUp.cfm and KronosDown.cfm
KronosUp.cfm:
<cflock scope="SERVER" timeout="30">
<cfset SERVER.Kronos=True>
<cffile action="write"
file="C:\websites\Infoweb\Data\KronosStatus.dat" output="True">
</cflock>
*********************************************
KronosDodwn.cfm:
<cflock scope="SERVER" timeout="30">
<cfset SERVER.Kronos=False>
<cffile action="write"
file="C:\websites\Infoweb\Data\KronosStatus.dat" output="False">
</cflock>
*********************************************
If I browse to these pages and run them they work. The link is
displayed or a maintenance message is displayed. (Server.Kronos is read
on another page that displays the link)
However, when I run them as a scheduled task, they don't work. The
Server.Kronos variable is not changed. If I run them manually from the
scheduled task area by clicking the run scheduled task button I get a
message at the top of the page that reads "This scheduled task was
completed succefully, but the Server.Kronos value remains unchanged."
Any ideas???
