Task Scheduler problem

Have developed a problem with Task Scheduler in the last few days. It
has tasks scheduled that it runs daily and weekly. They call .cmd
files. They stopped working on Friday. According to the task scheduler
log, the tasks were launched at the correct time and completed without
error. But, the job that was supposed to be launched never executed.
(It is supposed to launch a task list in BindView.) Any ideas why this
is happening?
 
I suppose the question is what changed before Friday; Task Scheduler
reported running the task ... so the cmd script was launched. Does the cmd
script run from the command prompt properly? Have passwords/contexts
changed?

Nothing has changed that I am aware of. No changes to passwords,
nothing in the event logs that indicate an error. If I run the .cmd
file from the command line the same thing happens... application never
actually kicks off.
 
It appears your problem isn't with Task Scheduler. If running the cmd file
from the command line, your problem is related to the application.
