Hello,

We have problems with the scheduled jobs that do not run as expected. When I look at a job, the message "The EPiServer Scheduler Service does not Appear to be active ...". I have verified that the service has not crashed, which it has not done. I have also verified that we are running the version of EPiServer CMS 6 R2 with "General Hotfix" which I understand to include fixes for problems with the scheduler.

After looking at the source code to DatabaseJob-page and looked at the if-statement that controls whether the message is displayed or not, I have made a simple test page:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

<script runat="server" language="c#">

EPiServer.DataAbstraction.ScheduledJob scheduledJob = EPiServer.DataAbstraction.ScheduledJob.LoadNextScheduledJob ();

</ Script>

Job is null: <% = scheduledJob == (EPiServer.DataAbstraction.ScheduledJob) null%> <br /> <br />

Next Execution: <% = scheduledJob != null ? scheduledJob.NextExecution.ToString() : "N / A" %> <br /> <br />

IsServiceOnline <% = EPiServer.DataAbstraction.ScheduledJob.IsServiceOnline%>

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The output from the page is:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Job is null: False

Next Execution: 2013-03-25 21:17:43

IsServiceOnline: False

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone have suggestions on how we can proceed with troubleshooting?

Thanks in advance!
