Scheduled PowerShell Task Won't Write to a File

Question

I have a PowerShell script that runs exactly the way I want interactively; creating two log files: one is a csv for graphing the output later, and the other is a basic status log, such as:

Opening database connection at 01/27/2015 09:11:47
Site analysis started.
Successfully recorded site metrics.

My scheduled task runs the PowerShell successfully, and commits all my entries to a SQL DB, but my csv and txt log are not completed.

I am using Write-Output and Out-File

My logs are set as such:

$LogFilePath = $("L:\Scripts\Metrics\Site_Analysis.csv")
$StatusLogFilePath = $("L:\Scripts\Metrics\Site_Analysis_Status.log")

The PowerShell script runs in:

C:\Scripts\

I really don't want to create a batch file that simply outputs everything such as:

batchfile.bat > file.log

since the desired output is very specific, and I don't want verbose output.

I found this, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25311489/scheduled-powershell-task-wont-write-to-file

but even with the log files set to the same directory, it still did not output.

Thanks.

Please note that all csv and log file output is historical (output is appended).

Answer 1

I don't want it to confuse anyone, but it turns out that the scheduled task path had quotes that were an invalid character type. I had copy/paste it from the command prompt and I just noticed they looked different than a normal ". It works now that I replaced them. The log files output fine too! Even though it was a misstep, hopefully this helps someone in the future.
