Scheduled Tasks – vanishing into the Void

We’ve got a really frustrating issue with our ColdFusion 8.01 box that seems to be getting worse as time goes on.

Every so often (the actually time seems pretty random – it could be 24 hours it could be 5 days) scheduled tasks that have been created in the ColdFusion Administration are simply disappearing.

There’s no pattern that we can see as not all the tasks vanish at the same time but, innevitably, the tasks will eventually drop out of the list.

It doesn’t seem to coincide with anything we’re doing (CF restarts, Server patches, etc.) and the tasks themselves run without error … assuming they haven’t been removed.

Has anyone else experienced this behaviour? I’ve tried adding <cfflush … /> to the scripts but they still disappear over time.

Any assitance gratefully received.
