Scheduled job in community 2.4

Vote:
 
I' currently trying to execute code from the Community framework 2.4 on a scheduled job. But each time I run it I get an license exception due to the following.

ClubHandler handler = new ClubHandler()
However, the constructor will execute this
LicenseProvider.Validate(typeof(ClubHandler));
and this one will later try to read the httpcontext which isn't set since the scheduled job is running automaticly and not manually.

So, my question is, how can I run my code? Can I validate the license in some way from my scheduled job?

Error message from the log:
2008-11-13 00:00:48,279\t(null)\t3.1.2 Failed to execute job 296e01dc-b5cf-4e6b-bfd5-2291826a2073

A solution to this problem could be to fake a httpcontext. Here is a quick link from googling on the subject:

Thanks Nicklas, that did the trick. I just had to create a new httpcontext before the new clubhandler call ant it worked.
