Please use the following code.

  11. public Timer(): base() {}
  12. public Timer(string jobName, SPService service, SPServer server, SPJobLockType targetType): base(jobName, service, server, targetType) {}
  13. public Timer(string jobName, SPWebApplication webApplication): base(jobName, webApplication, null, SPJobLockType.ContentDatabase) {
  14. this.Title = "Email Notification Job";
  15. }
  16. public override void Execute(Guid contentDbId) {
  17. string from = string.Empty;
  18. string smtpAddress = string.Empty;
  19. string to = "[email protected]";
  20. string subject = "Email Notification";

  76. }
  78. return mailSent;
  79. }
  82. }
  83. }
Then add a New Feature and change the Scope and rename it .

add a New Feature

Then create another class and copy this code.

We need to set the interval of our timer job application.
  1. using System;
  2. using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
  3. using System.Security.Permissions;
  4. using Microsoft.SharePoint;
  5. using Microsoft.SharePoint.Security;
  6. using System.Linq;
  8. namespace CustomTimerJob.Features.NotificationTimerJobFeature {
  10. public class EventReceiver: SPFeatureReceiver {
  11. // Name of the Timer Job, but not the Title which is displayed in central admin
  12. private
  13. const string List_JOB_NAME = "NotificationTimerJob";
  15. // Uncomment the method below to handle the event raised after a feature has been activated.
  17. public override void FeatureActivated(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties) {
  18. SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate() {
  19. SPSite site = properties.Feature.Parent as SPSite;
  21. // make sure the job isn't already registered
  22. site.WebApplication.JobDefinitions.Where(t => t.Name.Equals(List_JOB_NAME)).ToList().ForEach(j => j.Delete());
  24. // install the job
  25. Timer listLoggerJob = new Timer(List_JOB_NAME, site.WebApplication);
  26. SPMinuteSchedule schedule = new SPMinuteSchedule();
  27. schedule.BeginSecond = 0;
  28. schedule.EndSecond = 59;
  29. schedule.Interval = 15;
  30. listLoggerJob.Schedule = schedule;
  31. listLoggerJob.Update();
  32. });
  33. }
  36. // Uncomment the method below to handle the event raised before a feature is deactivated.
  38. public override void FeatureDeactivating(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties) {
  39. SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate() {
  40. SPSite site = properties.Feature.Parent as SPSite;
  42. // delete the job
  43. site.WebApplication.JobDefinitions.Where(t => t.Name.Equals(List_JOB_NAME)).ToList().ForEach(j => j.Delete());
  44. });
  45. }
  48. // Uncomment the method below to handle the event raised after a feature has been installed.
  50. //public override void FeatureInstalled(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
  51. //{
  52. //}
  55. // Uncomment the method below to handle the event raised before a feature is uninstalled.
  57. //public override void FeatureUninstalling(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)

  64. //{
  65. //}
  66. }
  67. }
Then deploy the project.
