Description:
I created a new project in the Back Up feature and scheduled it. Does not work. 
The tab it is not greyed out, as i read in another bug report.

How to repeat:
create a schedule back up, and it wont work.

Thanks for reporting! Could you take a look at the Windows Event Log? The messages should be in the Application section.

At the moment please also make sure you have the Password Storage enabled in the Administrator Options, because otherwise the password will not be known.

We might add an option to store the password with the scheduled command, but then it would be unencrypted.

Please report if you can trace the problem down! Thanks.

I have the same problem too with 1.0.14 running on XP SP1. I had already set the passwords to be stored and set the type to be Obscured. I've looked in my ebvent log; but there's no record relating to this at all in any log. I've also attemptd top schedule a backup and double checked the event logs; definitely no event generated.

I get a MySQL Adminstrator Exception that just says: Cannot schedule the backup task.

I have checked that there's a task scheduler service running (there is).

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has already been fixed
in the latest released version of that product, which you can download at
