When I try to generate a status report using getStatusReport();

It is throwing an error....also the tab is grayed out on the scheduler GUI. I have set the target directory where I wish the report to be stored.

Please tell me what's wrong??

Which error do you get?

"Uable to open C:\Temp\OpeninBrowser49929.url"

I have redirected the output but then how to I alter the location to the source?

I am sorry, I don't understand your question. How do you get C:\Temp\OpeninBrowser49929.url?

My question is:

while I try to view the status reports of the tasks, by clicking Reports--->Status Report on the GUI, I get the error message "C:\Temp\OpeninBrowser49929.url"
The point is that while I try to use the API call getStatusReport, the status report is unaccessible and is not directed on to a HTML page.

Please help.

Is the report generation option enabled in Tools/Options menu; Log page? If yes, can you see HTML files generated/updated after job runs in the chosen landing directory?

That is precisely the problem. I have enabled it and yet the HTML files are not landing...what am I doing wrong?

Take a look at what you get in the schedule.log file, if there are any indication of the problem.
Also verify the account running 24x7 has permissions to write to the specified directory

If still no help, enable trace options in the Tools/Options menu; log and run a job manually (any job), take a llok at the generated debug.log file, look for Exeptions related to Status report generation

Thanks a ton, I appreciate the help but it still says the following:

Why is it unable to find something like D:/folder??

It should be D:\folder not D:/folder. Windows systems use backslahes as path separators.

Well I know, sorry typos but in the GUI I just browsed to that folder..
so whats wrong?

For some reason it cannot access that folder. Is that a mapped network share or a local folder?
Did you type that path in the options box or used the Browse button?

It is a local folder and I used the browse button. That's why I am so dumbstruck.

Try picking a different folder and check if works there. For example, try creating a new empty folder on C drive. If that works, the problem is likely with permissions. If it doesn't, the problem is in something else.

What I don't get in the trace output is why it references "java.util.zip" and what it has to do with the zip. If changing folder is no help please send to support list of all JAR files from the 24x7 directory and their dates and sizes. We will check if any of these files is corrupted. Don't forget to mention your version and build numbers.
