Event ID 113 — General Task Registration

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

To create a task, register the task with the Task Scheduler service. When a task is created, it is stored in a task folder. You can change the access control list (ACL) for a task or task folder to allow or deny certain users and groups access to a task or a task folder.

Resolve

Fix trigger-specific failures

The task was registered, but there were failures related to some of the defined triggers. This can stop the task from running. To fix the trigger-specific failures: 

1. Click the Start button and type **Task Scheduler **in the Start Search box.

2. Select the Task Scheduler program to start Task Scheduler.

3. Locate the task in the task folder hierarchy. 

4. Right-click the task and select Properties.

5. On the History tab, view the events logged during the task registration. Trigger-specific events in this list should indicate the type of trigger that failed.

6. Ensure that the triggers are valid by viewing the trigger properties. The error code in the event message can contain  information that might help determine the problem with the trigger. The error code descriptions can be found at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=92632. The triggers for a task are located on the Triggers tab in the task Properties window.

Verify

Attempt to reregister (create) the task and verify that registration succeeds. Use the Schtasks.exe command-line tool to define and register the task, or use the Task Scheduler user interface to define and register the task.

 To define and register a task:

1. Click the Start button and type **Task Scheduler **in the Start Search box.

2. Select the Task Scheduler program to start Task Scheduler.

3. Click Create Task.

4. On the General tab, define a name for the task. On the Triggers tab, add a trigger to the task. On the Actions tab, define an action for the task. 

5. Click OK, and verify that no errors are reported when the task is created.

6. Select the newly created task and verify on the History tab that there are not any partial registration failures for the task.
