Management Console Scheduled Reports

Thread needs solution

Hello I am looking at trying to schedule reports from the Acronis Management console to be sent to an email address using the following Acronis article and script provided: https://kb.acronis.com/content/39205

Unfortunately when the task runs it never completes and remains in a 'running' state. We use Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 and I can see that the article is for 11.5

Can anyone confirm if this can/should work for version 11 too please?

There is no ActivityInitiator column in version 11 Update 0, but it appeared in Update 0.5 . If you are on Update 0, you can just remove this column from the query.
If you can get past "Set rs = amsCnn.Execute(query)" line, then your problem is not with Backup & Recovery version - maybe if fails on sending e-mail.

Thank you for your help Fedor. We are on version Acronis Backup & Recovery Management Server (build 11.0.17440 ) - not sure how to check the update version.

I tried removing the ActivityInitiator column from the select function on line 65 and also the entry on line 95 if that is correct? However I still get the same issue where the task just stays running.

When manually running the script I receive the following error:

Script: C:\.........email_daily_activities_report.vbs
Line: 74
Char: 3
Error: Invalid column name 'TaskName'.
Code: 80040E14
Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server

I'm not sure what to check/look for with regards to this error so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards.

No data for 'TaskName' is requested (or mentioned at all) in the original script. If MS SQL Server somehow requests it while processing the original request, I don't know how to fix it.
