Hi,

in my "private wiki" Religion-in-Japan (http://www.univie.ac.at/rel_jap/an), I 
am experiencing with templates that create categories which then serve to 
create automatic lists of illustrations. My problem is that my wiki behaves 
very strangely when updating the categories after a change in the template. Not 
only is the update very slow (a matter of days or weeks), I also get wrong 
updates as if I used a template version of weeks ago. As far as I know, 
"runJobs.php" should help here, but for whatever reason it has ceased to work. 
Of course, I have disabled all chaches for the time being.

The question: am I asking too much of my wiki if I constantly change categories 
by use of templates? And is there a way to get things right here, for instance 
abort all jobs? I suspect, the wiki tries to run all old jobs many of which 
have become obsolete and that this is the cause of my problems.

Any suggestion much appreciated

Bernhard

PS: For technical reasons I am not able to install semantic wiki and therefore 
use Extension:DPL (third party) for creating my lists.
