OTRS 3.x installed on Windows 2003/8

Post by icm3012 »

Hi

Do I need to use a windows cron software programm for scheduled tasks in windows 2003/2008 or can I use the windows task schedular as I understand these jobs are all perl based scripts.

I have seen the new wiki page regarding installation under IIS and Ms SQL SErver which sounds good, but the crom part is not completed yet for reference purposes.

Many thanks

Ian
kind regards

Ian

Conceptually, why not? Practically? ... the cronw application handles changes and lists of jobs better than recreating the lists by hand, plus there is the portability to linux if you ever want to go there.
OTRS 6.0.x (private/testing/public) on Linux with MySQL database.
