Where do we look for the return code when a Notification runs an EXE

Votes:

0

My EXE supposed to write to a file but the file is blank. Log does say Notification Sent.

8/8/16 1:56:12 PMSystem HealthNotification InfoThreshold Trigger sending EXE (Sensor/Source/ID: 1001/1001/2)
8/8/16 1:56:12 PMSystem HealthNotification InfoThreshold Trigger activated (Sensor/Source/ID: 1001/1001/2)

The Exe works when run manually, it appends new lines to the file which already exist. The script is being run by the local administrator account, signing is set to unrestricted.

Thanks.

Hello, thank you for your post. Please check the following article:

If you continue to experience issues, use Process Monitor to debug the notification's execution, PRTG doesn't store any logs regarding the returncode/result of exe notifications, it simply starts the process/script/exe.

Best Regards,
