Description
Resolution:
There maybe times when you want to automatically launch RTserver upon machine reboot without registering RTserver as a Windows Service. The following outlines using the Windows "Scheduled Tasks" facility.
Start->Settings->Control Panel->Scheduled Tasks
Select Add Scheduled Task
Select RTserver and under "Perform this task:"
Select the "When My Computer Starts" radio button. You'll be required to give a password for this task.
On the next screen *be sure* to check mark the "Open Advanced properties for this task when I click Finish".
The next screen is where you will enter your arguments. By default, RTserver is launched from a file in $RTHOME\BIN\I86_w32. Here is where you'll want to enter your command line arguments following the name of the executable. The line should look something like the following:
C:\RTHOME\BIN\i86_w32\rtserver.exe -command my_rtserver.cm
The next entry is the Start In line. By default it looks as follows:
Start in: C:\RTHOME\BIN\i86_w32
Change this to the directory where you want RTserver to launch from, such as
C:\goto\work
Click OK and reboot the box.
If the scheduled process does not start the scheduler log file can be found at \Winnt\ SchedLgU.Txt
