DaveM Well-known member Sep 10, 2014 #2 Well my first thought would be it should be disabled for the sake of fault finding. Not much use disabling the add on and you still run around looking for the issue only to find out that the cron is still running causing said issue Upvote 0 Downvote

Snog Well-known member Sep 10, 2014 #4 Hmm.. I'm going to have to look closer at the add-on that was causing the race condition on the server then. Something was allowing it to run. Thanks Mike! Upvote 0 Downvote
