Hi Alfredo,

that's a really good question. My first thought was: "Mmmh, I've never tried this on Windows before." So I've just taken a look at my Windows PC and it's not really difficult.

At first take a look at the microsoft manual "How to Schedule Taks" under http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308569/en-us.

For scheduled reporting you have to start the runtime.php script that is contained in the reportit folder. Call it from the CLI with "php runtime.php" to get a list of supported parameters.

The screen shot shows a task for daily reporting. Sorry, but my version of Windows isn't multilingual. Don't forget to use an admin account!
When the scheduled task has been finished you will also find a new entry in the cacti logfile.

Best regards,
-Andreas-

Hi Looc!

It seems to me that you've forgotten to set up your report configuration correctly for this task, because the it hasn't found any reports for calculating.
Therefore the parameter of your scheduled task has to match with the frequency of your report configuration.

E.g. "Daily reporting":
Scheduled task contains the following command:
"php runtime.php -d"
Report configuration: (see picture below)

You can see all parameters which are available by calling runtime.php at the CLI. (second picture).

Best regards
