PS C:\windows\system32> & “C:\Program Files\Octopus Deploy\Tentacle\Tentacle.exe” watchdog --delete --create --instances * --interval 10
Removing watchdog task
Creating watchdog task
Setting watchdog task interval to 10 minutes
ApplicationName: Tentacle
Instances: *
Scheduled task Octopus Watchdog Tentacle not found. Nothing to do.
What I do wrong? I’m sure that this command, with " --instances *", worked OK so far, but now it can’t create Task Scheduler.
Nothing interesting in C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\Octopus\Logs\OctopusTentacle:

Ok I get it now, there has to be 2 independent runs of exe, one with --delete and then second with --create.
That way scheduler is created properly.
But just as I’ve wrote before, I’m pretty sure that single command with both --delete and --create worked fine before, in previous versions.
Hi Rafal,
I believe it should work with both arguments in the same command, but it could be that something specific to that machine was causing a problem.
Glad to hear that you were able to get it working by using each command individually.
Regards,
Paul
