What else is in the log files? What is happening just before the error?

We will examine the error details tomorrow and get back to you. Please upgrade to 5.6.9. and verify if you get the same error there.

Keith,

the error is related to an SQL Task. Is it possible that you could export that Job and send to support@visualcron.com?

haha, sorry about this. This is a SQL Server backup job (script), and all the SQL Server services are stopped on this machine right now.

Never mind.

Do you want the script or anything to help you?
Support
2010-09-30T08:46:31Z
Yes, please export job settings and send script to support@visualcron.com. Also, please tell us the name of the Job.

The problem, at least in your export, is that no Connection is set in the SQL Task. Please verify that.

Hmm, you're correct. I had a connection in there before. We've had to partially rebuild the server and moved these databases. I wonder how that connnection disappeared (doesn't exist in VC at all.)

Not sure. But in later versions you can always log user actions to see which user deleted it and when.
