Scheduling Codeigniter php file in Windows Task Scheduler with controller name and function without using Cron

I’m trying to schedule a codeigniter php file in Windows Task Scheduler. I have tried using .bat file as follows:

php E:UniServerZindex.php mailtry mailsend

where mailtry is controller name and mailsend is controller function

I have also tried scheduling using powershell script using url as follows:

First:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command
        Invoke-WebRequest 'https://abcd.hub/abcd/mailtry/mailsend' -UseBasicParsing

Second:

$url = "https://abcd.hub/abcd/mailtry/mailsend"
PowerShell Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -Method GET

Third:

explorer "https://abcd.hub/abcd/mailtry/mailsend"

Nothing works. How to schedule this? Any help is much appreciated.

Answer

Hoping that if you go on a browser and execute that link it successfully works.

Then you can actually configure a task scheduler to open a certain browser then go for that link to execute.

At step 1 from the image put a path for a browser program like Firefox or google chrome within double quotes. e.g “C:Program Files (x86)Mozilla Firefoxfirefox.exe”

Then at step 2, simply add a link you wish to execute.

Then save your Task, you are done from there.
