I have a scheduled task that starts a report every 12 minutes. Sometimes a report is started 5 minutes after the scheduled report starts. There is no evidence anywhere of the scheduled task being fired. There is no manual process starting the report.
I have discovered long ago that modifying a scheduled task while it is running creates a phantom hidden task that can only be exorcised by rebooting the server. To allow reconfiguration of the task without worrying about this problem I wrote a process that can be configured. The scheduled task calls the process and acts according to its configuration. The scheduled task in question is set to fire a report process every twelve minutes. The process of the report can be followed in an application log. The desired report starts and is logged. At seemingly random times a report starts five minutes later. It is always five minutes never four or six etc. Again, there is no manual process starting this. There is no evidence of the scheduled task firing. There is no loop in the application that could start multiple reports with one url firing. What could be starting the report. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
