task scheduler returns false executing the script

  • 772

The following script checks for network share availability:

while($true)
{
    $i++
    test-path Z: |Foreach{"{0} - {1}" -f (Get-Date),$_} | Out-File "F:\script\path.log" -Append
    Start-Sleep -s 5
}

OUTPUT:

True

Executing from task scheduler as same user returns false. What can be wrong?

    The problem is, the Task Scheduler doesn't know the environment variablessuch as "Z:". Testing with the Fully Qualified network share name make it work.
