sparky3903 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Hey Group, I am trying to run an script every night at 9pm. the script runs an AppleScript to open a copy of filemaker run a report script and email it out. The script runs great when I run it locally. Runs the AppleScript perfectly. When I try to run it thru the scheduler it returns a "aborted by user" in the status. any ideas?

Rick Whitelaw Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Without intending to be obvious, have you checked your script for compatibility with FMS? You can do this in the edit script window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitch Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Where is this "copy of FileMaker?" If it's on another machine, I'd use the scheduling options on that machine to launch your file/run the script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrentHedden Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Looking at this from a different angle - but is there any reason why this can't just be run as a server-side script? Unless there is an incompatible script step you're using (like creating a PDF), emailing reports to users is a very common use of this server feature. Plus, it's a lot more reliable than using FMPro as a robot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
