TaskMaster Startup Trouble

Looks like your SQL listener is not running.

Make sure you are setting the db.ini file correctly. When it is edited, it should look something like this:

Code:

192.168.1.100
mydb
myusername
mypass

You don't want to put any equal signs or anything in it.

This is what my file looks like:

Code:

host=localhost
database=peq
user=*****
password=*****

I noticed that the file was db.txt instead of db.ini, so I changed it to a .ini file and it still didn't work. I checked my processes and noticed that mysqld-nt.exe wasn't running in the background, so I started it manually, but that didn't work either.

Sorry for the double post...

I misread your previous post trev, I changed my db file to look like this:

Code:

localhost
peq
*****
*****

Works fine now! Now all I need to know is how to get the mob to initiate the task?

For future reference, if anyone tries running TaskMaster in Windows 7, you might notice that it won't let you click in some of the boxes to change values. In order to fix this, simply right click the icon you use to start the tool, and select Properties. Then, go to the Compatibility tab and put a checkmark in the box for "Disable visual themes" and it should run perfectly
