The Event Viewer error on startup: "the scheduled task of CARPET met a failure during configuration data collection. HR = 0xC004F00E.

I use Windows XP with AMD processor clocked at 1.6 Ghz and 2 GB of RAM. This error appears in the event viewer whenever my computer starts. I don't know if it's doing any harm. can someone advise?

original title: the scheduled task of CARPET met a failure during configuration data collection. HR = 0xC004F00E

Hello Steven,

Did you ever receive notifications that a virus or malware has been removed from your system recently?
My only thought is that it is the remains of an infection on your machine.
It is most likely harmless, but I don't understand why you'd be concerned.
Do you have any task scheduled to run at startup using Task Scheduler built into Windows?
I would check to see if there are tasks to run at startup:

  • SQLcl throws the Exception on start and stop operating within the scheduled task

    I'm on Windows Server 2012 R2 runs a script TakeCommand (jpsoft.com) as a task scheduled using SQLcl - 4.2.0.15.177.0246.

    The script is invoked, when the account (with administrative privileges) who runs the scheduled task is not connected to the machine.

    The scenario is as follows:

    • servers both windows ServerA and ServerB (virtual servers)
    • ServerA has a SAN connected directly (as E drive)
    • ServerB remotely accesses drive E on ServerA and maps in drive E (guest ServerB cmd > net use e: \\ServerA\e)
    • the problem occurs on server b.

    Corr 04/09/2015: the SAN is not the cause of the errors/exceptions - it's just that the user who runs the scheduled task is not logged on and therefore has no APPDATA

    When SQLcl is called, the following lines are recorded... (italics: private information, "BOLD": SQLcl output not visible when the user connects while work is carried out at the request)

    03/09/2015 12:16:41.979 to connect to the jdbc URL ... (this output is to the batch calling SQLcl - everything below is SQLcl or SQL script)

    Message geändert durch stueckl - information server added

    Message geändert durch stueckl - information server deleted - it's a general problem

    If we were talking about developer SQL itself rather than SQLcl, then the solution is simple... you can always force your user settings to a folder accessible in arbitrary writing using the ide.user.dir environment variable just add something like this line to the file sqldeveloper.conf to your installation:

    AddVMOption - Dide.user.dir =

    SQLcl, however, is hard-coded dependency on APPDATA in Windows (and user.home on Linux).  May not be feasible in your case, but in some cases simple, APPDATA can be overridden in the script that launches the SQLcl and the NetEntries and xml SQL history files are read from / written to this file.

    For example: value APPDATA = C:\Temp

  • Reconfigure the scheduled task

    With the help of a previous script LucD http://www.lucd.info/2009/10/18/scheduled-tasks-methodaction/ I'm able to succeed in creating a task scheduled that powers on a virtual machine. I need to extend this so that if the existing task is already there it will update with the new configuration. I downloaded the SDK and read the docs to try to understand but he always aludes me.

    $dtmDate = get-Date
    $gmtoffset = 6
    $startTime = $dtmDate.AddHours ($gmtoffset)

    $emailAddr = "< emailaddr >.
    $vm = "< vm >".
    $folder = "SchedTask".
    $vmview = get-View (Get - VM $vm)
    $folderview = get-View (Get-file $folder)

    $spec = new-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec
    $spec. Name = 'Turned on' + $vm
    $spec. Description = 'Turned on' + $vm
    $spec. Enabled = $true
    $spec. Notification = $emailAddr
    $spec. Timer = New-Object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler
    $spec. Scheduler.runat = $startTime
    $spec. Action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction
    $spec. Action.Name = "PowerOnVM_Task."

    $svcRef = new-object VMware.Vim.ManagedObjectReference
    $svcRef.Type = 'ServiceInstance.
    $svcRef.Value = 'ServiceInstance.
    $serviceInstance = get-views $svcRef

    $stMgr = get-View ($serviceInstance.Content.ScheduledTaskManager)

    $stMgr.CreateScheduledTask($vmview.) MoRef, $Spec)

    This should do the trick.

    $dtmDate = Get-Date $gmtoffset = 6 $startTime = $dtmDate.AddHours($gmtoffset)
    
    $emailAddr = "[email protected]" $vm = "MyVM" $folder = "SchedTask"$vm = Get-VM $vm
    $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec$spec.Name = "Power On " + $vm.Name
    $spec.Description = "Power On " + $vm.Name
    $spec.Enabled = $true$spec.Notification = $emailAddr$spec.Scheduler = New-Object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler$spec.Scheduler.runat = $startTime$spec.Action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction$spec.Action.Name = "PowerOnVM_Task"
    $stMgr = Get-View ScheduledTaskManager$stMgr.RetrieveEntityScheduledTask($vm.ExtensionData.MoRef) | %{
        $st = Get-View -Id $_ | where {$_.Info.Name -eq $spec.Name}
    }
    
    if($st){
        $spec.Name += " Updated"    $st.ReconfigureScheduledTask($spec)
    }
    else{
        $stMgr.CreateScheduledTask($vm.ExtensionData.MoRef, $Spec)
    }
    

    The script sets the $spec object as before. It then checks if a task with this name already exists for the virtual machine.

    If so, it calls the ReconfigureScheduledTask method.

    Otherwise, it calls the CreateScheduledTask method.

    Note that I have adapted the script a bit to use some features present in newer versions of PowerCLI.

    As proof that the existing scheduled task is updated, I change the name for the scheduled task.

    But you can change any property in the object $spec in the same way

  • Move VM to csv file and create the scheduled task in VC

    What is the problem with the last line ' $scheduledTaskManager.CreateScheduledTask ($vmView.MoRef, $task) "?

    1. The ScheduledTaskManager lies in the Service Instance.

    $si = get-view ServiceInstance

    $scheduledTaskManager is Get-view $si. Content.ScheduledTaskManager

    1. We need to identify the virtual machine and the host where it will be powered on.

    #$vmView = get - VM PowerOnTest | Get-View

    #$esxView = get-VMHost esx35 - 01.vitoolkit.local | Get-View

    foreach ($f in (import-csv '

    'D:\MigrateStorage\amsterdam-core-hp-poweron.csv'))

    {

    $vmView = $f

    *

    echo $vmView

    *

    }

    1. Now we build the task argument.

    $arg = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodActionArgument

    #$ARG value = $esxview. MoRef

    $action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction

    $action. Argument = $arg

    $action. Name = "PowerOnVM_Task".

    $scheduler = new-object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler

    $scheduler.runat = .addminutes (5) (get-date)

    $task = New-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec

    $task. Action = $action

    $task. Description = 'start a virtual machine with a scheduled task '.

    $task. Enabled = $true

    $task. Name = 'Virtual Machine market '.

    $task. Programmer = $scheduler

    $scheduledTaskManager.CreateScheduledTask ($vmView.MoRef, $task)

    The following script should do the trick.

    $csvName = 
    $tgtDatastore = 
    $emailAddr = 
    $startTime =                   # Ex [Datetime]"10/21/2009 20:00"
    $startInterval = 
    
    $si = get-view ServiceInstance
    $scheduledTaskManager = Get-View $si.Content.ScheduledTaskManager
    
    $offset = 0
    Import-Csv $csvName | % {
         $vm = Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -Filter @{"Name"=$_.VMname}
    
         $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec
         $spec.Name = "svMotion " + $_.VMname
         $spec.Description = "Migrate " + $_.VMname + " to " + $tgtDatastore
         $spec.Enabled = $true
         $spec.Notification = $emailAddr
         $spec.Scheduler = New-Object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler
         $spec.Scheduler.runat = $startTime.AddMinutes($offset)
         $offset += $startInterval
         $spec.Action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction
         $spec.Action.Name = "RelocateVM_Task"
    
         $arg1 = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodActionArgument
         $arg1.Value = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec
         $arg1.Value.datastore = (Get-Datastore $tgtDatastore | Get-View).MoRef
          $arg1.Value.pool = $vm.ResourcePool
          $arg1.Value.host = $vm.Runtime.Host
    
         $spec.Action.Argument += $arg1
         $arg2 = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodActionArgument
         $arg2.Value = [http://VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineMovePriority|http://VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineMovePriority]"defaultPriority"
         $spec.Action.Argument += $arg2
    
         $scheduledTaskManager.CreateScheduledTask($vm.MoRef, $spec)
    }
    

    Although the scheduled task will trigger a svMotion, CreateScheduledTask method seems still need a host and resourepool MoRef in VirtualMachineRelocateSpec argument.

  • Status of the scheduled task

    Hello

    In our current setup, we need trigger report of the editor on the completion of an external task.

    We use the Editor (ScheduleRequest) web services to start the generation of report and then to an FTP server.

    However, we must now trigger another task based on completion of the scheduled task from the Publisher.

    ScheduleRequest returns the job ID.

    Hi Bill,

    1. what exactly happens when you run the backup program?

    If a scheduled task does not run when you expect it, right-click the task, and then click Properties. On the Task tab, make sure that the enabled check box is selected. On the tab schedule, check that planning is set correctly.

  • Change the time for the scheduled task, I added

    I created a schedular system file (.vbs) that supports the backup of the database of one of my application. I added this file to the scheduled task. I put the time of execution to 15:00 daily, now I want to update at the time of execution of the task sacheduled. How can I do? I use Windiws 7 Home premium.

    Hi Aurélie Rozier,.

    Click on the Start button and type "Calendar" in the search box. The option tasks planning must appear in the search list. Click (or double-click) on this option to launch scheduled tasks. When the window tasks planned opens leaves the Task Scheduler list fill out and then look to the bottom of this list for planning thye name, that you want to change. When you have found, right-click on it and choose Properties. In the Properties window, click the triggers tab and then click Edit at the bottom of the special editing window. You should be able to change the time from there.

    I also get a DCOM error on each start, but have been informed that I can ignore it safely.  The two errors reported above, however, are new, but, so far, seem not to cause performance problems.

    All advice would be much appreciated.

    I use Microsoft Security Essentials with free Malwarebytes as a scanner support. To remove unwanted pests, I use ADWCleaner on a when necessary basis. I remember only a serious malware incident in recent years, which I solved it quickly. SUPERAntiSpyware is not incompatible, but my experience is that there's little consequence. It is not on this computer, but I still have it on my laptop. Duplicates emisoft Malwarebytes so why bother with it?

    My last reading of your event viewer reports, is that there is nothing serious at present on your computer.
