Trouble executing/scheduling SQLH2.exe

  • After much configuration (and a small edit in the dbo.spri_cpu procedure to default @Name), we are able to get SQLH2.exe to work... but if we try to run it from the Windows Task manager, nothing happens. Removed the task and made it a SQL Server 2008 job... no dice.

    Anyone have suggestions as to the task method? Why would it not work?

  • Only thing I can think about is permission. Does the SQL Server service user have sufficient rights?

  • Figured it out... running the exe from a job was not picking up the config file... added the /C<config file> and it worked 🙂 Task might have needed that as well.

    Thanks!

    any idea why i had to edit the dbo.spri_cpu stored procedure to default the @Name parameter to make it work? This was the error I was getting:
