I have always tested my schedule scripts by having it email me at the end for testing, and executed it with CFSCHEDULE the first time around just to make sure it was completing. Very helpful when you are on a shared host and do not have access to the admin to make sure it was added correctly

I've always been able to get it to work, but the formula for success has not always been entirely straightforward. This may sound strange at first, but have you tried waiting for 24 hours to see if the thing kicks in? I've had my server monitor running for months on my home-based cf server. Then I had to fiddle with something in cfschedule (I forget what, exactly) for another task and suddenly the thing went dead as a doornail. Couldn't get it to restart despite tinkering with all kinds of stuff. After a bit I gave up and went on to other things, but was very surprised to see it had fired up again the next day, beginning at the start time of the event -- despite the fact that the starting *date* was in the past. I've also had success using '' action="UPDATE" '' in my cfschedule statement. All of the above is for CF 4.5.1sp2. As an aside MX scheduling behaved just fine after an upgrade overtop of cf 4.5x. Shots in the dark, maybe, but who knows... --------------------------------------- Matt Robertson, MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com - Retail http://foohbar.org - ColdFusion Tools --------------------------------------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
