I'm working with a Server08 box (Web Edition) where the Task Scheduler had run a set of unchanged housekeeping scripts for months. Over the last week, Scheduler has failed to start scripts twice.

TS's UI is not reporting any error condition - just doesn't run the scripts. I'd like to run a query (either PowerShell or Log Parser) to pull any TS-based events for the last week but i'm not sure of the best approach, syntax, or process names to look for.

thx

Why not look at the Task Scheduler log?

The one that lists actions by task? I haven't found any errors there - it merely lists that the given task completed sucessfully. Something interrupting the engine itself...not the task itself. – justSteve Aug 25 '10 at 16:13
When you look at the task history, what is the operational code? – joeqwerty Aug 25 '10 at 16:26
in the 'last run result' The operation completed successfully. (0x0) in the History event 102 | Task Completed | (2) – justSteve Sep 29 '10 at 15:11
