Comments:

This is as designed. By default the output of a schedule task can only be saved to a .txt file or .log file. This change is made as per the best security practice. If you really want the scheduled tasks output to be written to any other kind of file, you can control it from <ColdFusion Home>/cfusion/lib/neo-cron.xml.
