Pat, I have an old installation of cf4.5 on a w2k server that has been running sheduled tasks reliably for a couple of years now but do not use CFSCHEDULE... I use the w2k task scheduler to run a simple batch file that tells the CF template to run... I found CFSCHEDULE under CF4.5 too unreliable also, but this is a surefire way to reliably schedule tasks.
Are you interested in trying this, or do you want to abandon the scheduling idea altogether?

Im my app I have a shopping cart system where the user checks out and finally the order in one instance is then FTP'd to our supplier. The problem is the server takes some time for the file to send and it looks like the browser is hanging. To get around this initially i saved the file to disk on the server and then scheduled as task with CFSCHEDULE to FTP the file at a later time. The problem here is CFSCHEDULE is very flaky and the files fail to send 1/2 the time cos the task doesnt run. (we are running CF4.5 on IIS ) Has any1 got any solutions to this kind of problem ? I have one idea of building a java CFX tag that spawns a new thread and FTP's the file in the other thread so the client doesnt block while the file is sending, but im not sure if this will work...any1 know any good java FTP Api's ?
