To update everyone: this is definitely a bug with this stuff when using FileResource with Tracker (2.23 -> ). I'm currently working on a fix, but it will take some time.
It hopefully won't take long, but as it's a pretty critical issue to have in production you will need to work around it in the mean time. The least intrusive way is to run a cronjob at just before the cleanup task triggers (2:00 server time) and update all fileresource rows in the DB with isassigned=TRUE. Alternately a patch could be applied (comments out a single line to disable the deletion/cleanup task). Let me know if you need any more details.
