I have a .vbs script that I want to run daily. The script is to run a 3rd party app that will back up a SQL Server Express database to a flat file for data archiving and restoral if needed. If I click on the script it works perfectly but if I schedule
the script part of it works; the part where it creates the backup directory but I cannot get the actual backup to happen.
I went back to the software company for help. They said that if the script works by a double click it must be a Microsoft problem.
I am running this on SBS 2008 SP2 which is X64. I have SQL Server Express 2005 & 2008 on the server. What troubleshooting can I do. I am a bit weak on vbs programming so I don't have anything pre programmed to write to the event viewer. I also had a colleague modify the script to run in PowerShell but I experience the same issue there.
