Ernest Cosson






Ernest Saint-Charles Cosson


Ernest Saint-Charles Cosson (July 22, 1819 – December 31, 1889) was a French botanist born in Paris


Cosson is known for his botanical research in North Africa, and during his career he participated in eight trips to Algeria. In 1863 he was elected president of the Société botanique de France, and from 1873 to 1889, he was a member of the Académie des sciences.[1]


In 1882 Jules Ferry, as Minister of Public Instruction, decided to create a mission to explore the Regency of Tunisia.[2]
The expedition was headed by Cosson and included the botanist Napoléon Doumet-Adanson and other naturalists.[3]
In 1884 a geological section under Georges Rolland was added to the Tunisian Scientific Exploration Mission.[4]
Rolland was assisted by Philippe Thomas from 1885 and by Georges Le Mesle in 1887.[5]


With Jacques Nicolas Ernest Germain de Saint-Pierre (1815–1882), Cosson published the influential Atlas de la Flore des Environs de Paris.[6]

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

Image
0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
