This is indeed in the end of a long week. You're absolutely right about this, Karl. I had forgot about the start method in the connection tab.

Have a nice weekend and sorry about this unnecessary post. :)

Hi Erlend,

Are you sure the "Start method" (on the Connection tab) says "Start
automatically"?  Without that the job will not run.

There is a time field in the database table that describes jobs, which
has the time it last checked if the job should be run.  What ManifoldCF
does is:

- start with the last time the job was checked
- Move that time forward to the current time, and see if there is any
matching time in between that corresponds to the schedule
- Run the job if a matching time was found

So if you can't find anything wrong in the job in the UI, you might want
to have a look at the jobs table to see what the time of last check was;
it may have been messed up somehow if you were playing with things.

    Even though all my three jobs are configured to start automatically
    at a specific time, they're not. This behavour seems to have
    occurred after I manually removed all the schedules due to temporary
    problems and later added them again.

    Why? Something I haven't understood?

    Here's a screenshot of one of my job settings. This is the second
    time MCF is ignoring the scheduled time for this particular job:
    http://folk.uio.no/erlendfg/__manifoldcf/scheduled_time.png
    <http://folk.uio.no/erlendfg/manifoldcf/scheduled_time.png>

    As you can see, the job should run every Thursday at 6pm, but this
    is the second time it ignores this setting.

    If I look in "Status and Job Management", the start and end time for
    this job are Tue May 14 14:23:06 CEST 2013 and Tue May 14 14:24:45
    CEST 2013 respectively, that is, the time when I manually started
    this job last time. But no activity since then.
