The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problem Running Batch File Windows Server 2003

Asked by glassgiant in Windows Batch Scripting, MS DOS, Windows 2003 Server

Tags:

Hello,

I have been looking all over various forums that keep describing the problem of running a scheduled batch file in Windows Server 2003 when you are not logged in. Most of the replys that I see usually say to make sure you run the file as Administrator and also to install the hotfix that corresponds to this problem. I have done both of the above and still no luck. The script runs fine when I am logged in but as soon as I log out it ceases to run. Under scheduled tasks it says that the file ran while I was not logged in but I know that this is not the case. Basically my batch script is being run to gather some information from the system (Win 2003 Server service pack 2) and pass this information (via CGI parameters) to a perl script that I have running on another server. I call start (name of url with params here)" which brings up Internet Explorer (the default browser) with the correctly loaded page. Every thing works perfect until I log off. I have heard (I dont know how correct this is) that the reason for this is due to the fact that Internet Explorer requires certain environment variables to be run and these variables are not set if I am logged off. Does anyone know if this is true and if so is there some way around this? Any help is appreciated, Thank you.

PS- am running Internet Explorer 7.0 thanks,Start Free Trial
