William,

I had a question, which i think is unrelated to your original problem:
Why are you using : @HandlesEvent(....) instead of renaming the
Resolution handler methods to the name you pass in param of
@HandlesEvent ?

ie:
       public Resolution save() throws SchedulerException {

instead of:

 @HandlesEvent("save")
       public Resolution saveJob() throws SchedulerException {


Regards,
Sam
