Scheduled Tasks not running - Coldfusion Server Administration

Question

I have a series of scheduled tasks that all run at various times of the day. Since the migration from Coldfusion version 7 to 10, these tasks have stopped running.

When I check the box, that outputs the results to a file, I get a text file that says nothing more than "Connection Failure". I have tried everything imaginable regarding the username and password for the task. It makes no difference. When I run the CFM page in my browser, the page works correctly and generates an email just like it should. I just can't make it run as a scheduled event.

Answer 1

Is the scheduled task folder has any check for the session or anything? I mean is the scheduled task folder is accessible without login? Please try with removing all the redirect rules for the application. That might work.

Answer 2

For me the requests were timing out. I increased the timeout in the administrator and that solved it. Doing a cfhttp in a test file and dumping the results helped me troubleshoot it.
