I'm starting to think it's not the CF Scheduler per se that's crashing the system (see below), but one of the scheduled jobs itself.
Is there a known problem in a Linux/CF5 environment with having a program send out a lot of CFMail? (This stuff works fine in Win2k) tia, Tobe Goldfinger ------------------------------------------------ Earlier today-------- First: a little background---- I have a client who very recently moved an app from Win2k/CF4.5 to Linux/CF5 (both using the same MSSQL db.) With probably only modest testing, he decided it was working and went live with the Linux version. (fyi--- I just inherited this app written by someone else so I know very little about the code) Now: the problem----- Yesterday I get reports that people's sessions are timing out every few minutes in spite of what the CFAdmin/CFApplication settings are for session timeouts. I track the session timeout issue down to the point where it's clear that the problem is that the CFServer is restarting every few minutes. Here are some server log entries. "Information","1024","11/26/01","18:26:23",,"The ColdFusion Application Server was stopped." "Information","1024","11/26/01","18:29:17",,"The ColdFusion Application Server started." "Fatal","7175","11/26/01","18:30:02",,"Caught a fatal signal (11) - Aborting" "Information","1024","11/26/01","18:30:04",,"The ColdFusion Application Server started." We have TONS of these fatal signal(11) / server restarting messages.... every few minutes. Then I take a look at the scheduled jobs....... look at these log entries: "Information","4101","11/26/01","18:30:02",,"Scheduled task 'Task1' for URL request 'http://xxx.net/event1/event.cfm' initiated." "Information","5126","11/26/01","18:30:02",,"Scheduled task 'Task2' for URL request 'http://xxx.net/event2/expire/index.cfm' initiated." "Error","7175","11/26/01","18:30:02",,"Status code for task: 'Task1' is '500 Internal Server Error'" "Information","4101","11/26/01","18:30:02",,"Scheduled task 'Task1' for URL request 'http://xxx.net/event1/event.cfm' completed." "Information","5126","11/26/01","18:30:02",,"Scheduled task 'Task2' for URL request 'http://xxx.net/event2/expire/index.cfm' completed." It does seem to me that there's something about these scheduled jobs that's crashing the server. So my question to the group is thus: a) does anyone have experience with the CF5/Linux scheduler..... good or bad to report b) could we bypass the scheduler entirely and use CRON to launch the batch jobs (if yes... plz supply specific details on how to get that to work..... thx) tia, Tobe Goldfinger ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
