When starting powerJobs Processor it fails with the exceptions .ctor failed and LoadJobsInCache failed

Issue

powerJobs Processor fails to start with the errors: LoadJobsInCache failed with exception and .ctor failed with exception, sometimes also GetPowerJobsClient failed with exception

Cause

There are 2 Jobs with the same name in the Jobs folder, located in "C:\ProgramData\coolOrange\powerJobs\Jobs".

PowerJobs Processor reads the names without the extension and everything that is added behind. That means that

  • Sample.CreatePDF.ps1
  • Sample.CreatePDF.ps1backup

have the same name in powerJobs Processor and the application will run into an error

Solution

Rename your jobs with a unique name before the extension: <UniqueName>.ps1
