    Default CFSchedule and DST time change

    Hi All,
    i have had issues since upgrading from 6 to 7 with cfschedule. sometimes it
    runs fine, other times it will run the same task multiple times in a row, other
    times it will wait an hour then run the same task again.

    This may not sound like a big deal, but the tasks send out several thousands
    of emails. talk about spam!!

    I have been screamed at on a weekly basis to make this stop.

    Now since the the DST change, the tasks that were scheduled at 3pm run at 3pm
    and again at 4pm!!

    Please someone help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Thanks in advance.
    Tim

    Default Re: CFSchedule and DST time change

    I have had a similar issue and although I wouldn't call this a cure with
    certainty, it did seem to fix my immediate problem. Our CF7 server has 50+
    scheduled tasks that execute at different intervals. I was having an issue with
    a database import with email notification running multiple times. I could not
    find a single issue until I noticed that there were a significant number of
    tasks with the same start time on the same interval as the one causing the
    problem. In an attempt to fix it I offset the start time by 2 minutes and
    adjusted the interval to an odd number. I haven't had a multiple occurrence
    since.
