Hello,
we have a problem with our scheduled task. we use them for backing up our servers.
here is the background. we were making a task for shutting down and power on a vm. (these tasks are ~ 4 weeks old). now we install a new esx server. (esx2) we migrate some vms to it. - old server (esx1)
at night, the tasks will start. one vm shutting down. but didn't power on again. here is the error message from the vm when we start the scheduled task for power on the vm. the shutdown task runs without any problems.
we make a new task for startup, the machine start!!!when we want to edit the "old" task the same error message occur.

\************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.
