Do you store a history of clients jobs on your servers? Sponsor Forum information I have had the same a couple of times.In the VisualCron program files (x86) directory there is a folder backup, in there is a zip file.Extract the zip file and replace the origional jobs.xml with the one in the zip file you extracted. I cannot speak to what happened or how to get your jobs back (Although the suggestion by Danny van Oijen seems correct)What I did want to mention is that VC has two jobs preloaded when you install. Delete logs and backup settings. Assuming you did not remove those jobs you will have a backup, somewhere.I would always assume you will need a backup because of a catastrophic failure. To that end we have each instance of VC setup to backup, nightly, to another server. Each backup has it's own name to distinguish it from the others. This way, if you overwrite a job, delete something you did not want to, etc, you can go back to last night's backup. You could set it to backup multiple times a day if needed. The only thing you lose on restore would be the history created between the backup and restore. I set all of the backups to be the name of the server/computer from where they came.One suggestion for your situation would be find the backup file, save it somewhere on your computer not related to VC, uninstall VC and then download and install the newest version (or one version up from what you had) Today around noon we had to restart a remote desktop computer on which the VisualCron server runs (Windows Server 2019 Standard).

Forum User Name or E-Mail Address: Hi Henrik (and all)Now we have Loop support which is a big bonus for us, I am visiting my customer this week to implement VC across their site having now bought a site licence.Now I am looking for some advice on the first step of the implementation plan :-)One of the areas we need to automate is batch job processing. So an incoming data file sent via FTP needs to be run against a document composition tool, however, there are other parameters that need to be passed in order to do this successfully.We need to read an external lookup table (CSV or XLS) and match a specific record with the data file (the first column of record 'x' of the CSV file is 'like' the filename). Once we do this, we need to extract all of the fields in that record individually and use them in subsequent tasks in the job.A VC Tasks stores it's output in STDOUT, but I need to break this down in to individual 'Variables' that can be reused within the VC Job. As far as I can tell, there is no easy way of doing this in VC, so I am suspecting that I need to employ some external process in order to do this, unless anyone can advise on an effective way of achieving this entirely within VC?The nearest I have got is running a Powershell Script that does the matching and assigning of fields into variables e.g.:============$currpath = "{TRIGGER(Active,LastTrigger,File.Result.TriggerFolder)}"$currfile = "{TRIGGER(Active,LastTrigger,File.Result.Name)}" import-Csv $matchfile | Where-Object {$currfile -match $_.FileMatch} | Select-Object -First 1 | Out-File $outfile | %{$fm = $_.FileMatch; $cID = $_.Cust_id; $appRoot = $_.'App Root'; $DDef = $_.DocDef;} =============This works extremely well, however there is no way of returning the individual values to VC (e.g $cID, $appRoot and $DDef in the script above) so they can be used like usual VC Variables elsewhere in the Job. Could this be an easy feature to introduce to allow me to keep all automation functionality within VC?CheersAndy Sponsor Forum information Hi allJust wondered if anyone was able to provide any feedback on my post (#53) above?

Forum User Name or E-Mail Address: I'm attempting a fresh install of VisualCron using my company's site license. According to this website's activation information page, the license is valid up through Version 5.1.1. I have a number of existing jobs which require features found in V5.1.0 or higher.However, the only versions available from the download page are V5.1.2 (which the license doesn't cover) and V4.9.4 which I doubt will run my existing 5.1.0 jobs.Are the intermediate versions between 4.9.4 and 5.1.2 available somewhere?

[Solved] VisualCron 5.6.2 ftp download resume? - VisualCron
Forum User Name or E-Mail Address: We are moving off of our old scheduling software and are converting all of our jobs over to Visual Cron. One item that has created a slight problem for us is that we are used to having an option in the conditions for a "File Exists and Is Not Locked" status. We have files that are sent via FTP. The files take up to a minute to create, but the job sees that the file exists and starts the job. The job fails because the file is still in use by another program (the FTP software). This has created an issue for us. It didn't corrupt the file but we are worried that may happen sometime down the line. If the "File Exists and Is Not Locked" could be an additional option in the conditions that would be a great addtions. or possibly enhancing the Triggers for multiple triggers. If there was option for an "and" in addtion to the default "or" when defining the multiple triggers. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks! Sponsor Forum information There is already an option in the file trigger that allows the job to execute when the file lock is released. If you open your file trigger and go to the "File" tab you should see a checkbox that says "Trigger when file has been released". I have tried that option, but we have multiple criteria that need to be met. That's why we want it to be a condition. If the Triggers had an "action" tab like the conditions do that would be great. Then multiple triggers could be utilized with the "Trigger when file has been released" option. Or the "Trigger when file has been released" could be added to the conditions. It just seems like if a condition is met when the file exists, there should be an option to make sure the file is Not Locked. Can you provide all the steps your job does in order as well as the conditions attached to each task? Also, what triggers are attached to this job? Is it just the file trigger or is there a timed execution as well? From reading your posts so far this is what I understand:Step 1: A program outside of VisualCron downloads the files from an FTP site.Step 2: Once the files have been downloaded, VisualCron is supposed to startI can't connect to VisualCron Server - VisualCron - Forum

A job (or is it multiple jobs?) that process them.Is this correct? If so, have you considered having VisualCron perform the FTP actions to download the files? That way once it completes the very next step in the job will be the task that processes them. I have setup multiple jobs on our system where the first step is to download the file then perform a PGP decrypt, or run a program, or archive the file, etc. I haven't experienced any file locking issues when doing it this way.Regards,Peter The files are being sent via FTP to us from an external source. It is 2 files that are being created. The problem is that both files take up to a couple minutes to fully complete. The files do not arrive at a particular time. The files also come in random order. File "X" may be pushed to us before file "Y" or vice versa and the first to be pushed to us does not mean that file will be completed first. This is our reason for wanting to use multiple triggers. If that existed, we could just create triggers that would "trigger when the file has been released" for each file. When both files were released the job would start. If we set these as conditions the jobs start when the files are first created (and are not complete). So you only want the job to execute when both files have been fully received? Hmm. Yeah it would be nice to have a condition that could check for a file lock in this situation. I have a solution that might work however it is not very elegant.Job 1: When file "X" is received and the lock is released it fires and creates a simple text file (for example "fileX.txt") that signals the receipt is complete.Job 2: When file "Y" is received and the lock is released it fires and creates a simple text file ("fileY.txt") that signals the receipt is complete.Job 3: This runs on a timed trigger (Every 5 minutes for example). Attach a condition set that looks for "fileX.txt" and "fileY.txt". If they don't exist, exit the job. Otherwise do your processing and delete the two files once complete.You will run into issues if Job 1 or Job 2 attempts to write the flag file while Job 3 is running however if you know you will not receiveComments

After another restart of the remote desktop computer (where the VC server runs) I was able to connect to the VC server again and on the left side of the VC interface I can see all the folders. However, when I click on a folder nothing happens and it seems that all jobs have been lost!!17.12.2021 18:37:57 Debug Exiting NetworkDrivesAPI.Load17.12.2021

Do you store a history of clients jobs on your servers? Sponsor Forum information I have had the same a couple of times.In the VisualCron program files (x86) directory there is a folder backup, in there is a zip file.Extract the zip file and replace the origional jobs.xml with the one in the zip file you extracted. I cannot speak to what happened or how to get your jobs back (Although the suggestion by Danny van Oijen seems correct)What I did want to mention is that VC has two jobs preloaded when you install. Delete logs and backup settings. Assuming you did not remove those jobs you will have a backup, somewhere.I would always assume you will need a backup because of a catastrophic failure. To that end we have each instance of VC setup to backup, nightly, to another server. Each backup has it's own name to distinguish it from the others. This way, if you overwrite a job, delete something you did not want to, etc, you can go back to last night's backup. You could set it to backup multiple times a day if needed. The only thing you lose on restore would be the history created between the backup and restore. I set all of the backups to be the name of the server/computer from where they came.One suggestion for your situation would be find the backup file, save it somewhere on your computer not related to VC, uninstall VC and then download and install the newest version (or one version up from what you had) Today around noon we had to restart a remote desktop computer on which the VisualCron server runs (Windows Server 2019 Standard). The problems were not related to VisualCron. We hadn't done an upgrade of VisualCron. When the shutdown started, the first errors appeared:17.12.2021 12:19:14 Info System is shutting down17.12.2021
