[SOLVED] Script does not execute via Scheduler on startup

[avggeek]

Wondering if your solution is over-complicated… How about something like this?

:while ([ :len [ / interface detect-internet state find where state=internet ] ] = 0) do={
  :delay 200ms;
}
# your follow-up code here...

If you really have to check for the interface just add name=“ether8-gateway” to the find command.

Thanks for the recommendation eworm. I could not get it to work with the variable check and in fact even the “:set $variable” I had in the loop was not working correctly. Once I modified the script to use the :len check logic you provided, it started working correctly.

The other gotcha for me was I had the script/scheduler policy set to “read/write/policy/test” only but for netwatch commands to execute in a script, you need to add “reboot” Policy as well.
