See my reply below: From: pgsql-general-ow...@postgresql.org [mailto:pgsql-general-ow...@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of Ralph Dell Sent: Monday, February 06, 2012 8:26 AM To: pgsql-general@postgresql.org Subject: [GENERAL] windows 2008 scheduled task problem
I am running postgresql 8.4.3/ postgis 1.5 on a windows server 2008 R2 I am unable to get the shp2pgsql command to run as scheduled tasks. There is no problem running any of the commands from the command line or a python script. Some sample commands are shp2pgsql -s 900913 -I -d myshape.shp gis.myshape -u xxx -p yyy > myshape.txt or %POSTGIS_PATH%\shp2pgsql -s 900913 -I -d myshape.shp gis.myshape -u xxx -p yyy > myshape.txt or shp2pgsql -s 900913 -I -d myshape.shp gis.myshape -u xxx -p yyy | psql -d mydb -U xxx -q I do not get any output from the scheduled task. The history tab in the task scheduler will show Task triggered/ task started / task completed, and report the task successfully completed. I am running the tasks under a system administrator account. Any suggestions from someone who has a similar environment. This is my first post to the list and I hope it is an appropriate place for the question I and I have provided enough detail. Ralph Dell I don't know about Win 2008, but under XP, I have to use the full path of any programs I have in scheduled job. Susan
