Universal Forwarder: Why does the following error appear when I launch a batch file?

Hello,
I have faced this error when launching a batch file with Splunk:

ERROR ExecProcessor - message from ""C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\apps\SQLFailed_logon\bin\script\LogCheck.bat"" **set was unexpected at this time.**

When I try to run this file by myself it works great. But when the batch starts Splunk Universal Forwarder, it has an error: "set was unexpected at this time"

It's strange that this script works on the similar servers with no errors but other servers with errors.

So the error was because I used script file: runbase.path with the same name for two application.
We need use different name for each application. For example for App1 we need use name runbase_App1.path for second App2 name runbase_App2.path and so on..

The script contains a code;
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set d=%date:~0,2%
set m=%date:~3,2%
set y=%date:~6,4%
if %d:~0,1%==0 set d=%d:~1%
if %m:~0,1%==0 set m=%m:~1%
set /a feb=y%%4
if %feb%==0 (set feb=29) else (set feb=28)
set /a tok=m-1
if %tok%==0 set tok=12
for /f "tokens=%tok%" %%i in ("31 %feb% 31 30 31 30 31 31 30 31 30 31") do (
:: минус 1 month set /a m-=1
set /a m-=1
if !d!==0 (
set d=%%i
set m=%tok%
if !m!==12 set /a y-=1
)
)
set d=0%d%
set m=0%m%
set lastmonth=%y%-%m:~-2%
echo %lastmonth% > out.txt
