Errors with Data Loader batch file creation

Hi ,

I am trying to create a batch file with scheduler to periodically delete particular category of tasks create in our lead records. I am understanding and trying to run a sample batch file given in the Data loader guide - command line quick start. But it is throwing lot of errors and I don't understand what they are. Can any one help me what's going wrong. Here are the errors.

Hi Rich13,

Using Apex Data Loader can be challenging at this. Instead why dont you try using Jitterbit Data Loader in which you can easily schedule the update.

Thanks,
