Cron tasks are not auto initiating

Technical Blog Post


Abstract

Cron tasks are not auto initiating

Body

Some cron task are not auto initiating after restarting the server or turning of the admin mode.

Those cron task are only starting when clicking Reload Request from Select Action menu.

 

The cause of this problem is that reloadreqtime is null so they don't start.

 

Some of Crontask instances have this problem, you can find them with the following SQL:

select crontaskname, instancename, description from crontaskinstance where reloadreqtime is null and active = 1;

 

To manually update them, run the following SQL,

update crontaskinstance set reloadreqtime = current date where reloadreqtime is null and active = 1;

 

This will reload all the active crontask instances.
