Installer Packages Not Running As Scheduled

[dscoland]

Hi Lansweeper Community,

I have created an installer package that runs a PowerShell script. This script runs successfully, and I planned to automate the deployment daily. However, when I created a schedule to run Everyday at Midday or Everyday at 11 AM, it doesn't execute, and I need to run it manually.

Is there something I am missing?

Thanks and Best,
Daniel

We actually found that it might be the server that it's residing on. It turned out that the OS it was running on may have just not been in a good state. We migrated to another server, and so far the scheduled deployments have been running.

Hopefully that was it! Thanks much.

There is an issue in Lansweeper version 6.x where if you modify a deployment that has already been scheduled, the Last Execution time of the schedule will no longer update. The deployment does successfully run in the background though. Make sure to check Deployment\Installer Logs to double-check if the deployment ran or not. We'll be resolving this issue in a future Lansweeper release that's currently in alpha testing. At this moment in time we don't yet have a release date for this though.

Additionally when scheduling deployments do make sure that the start time isn't too far in the future, as the schedule won't be able to trigger until that date.
