CF 10.2 Standard deleting Scheduled task after CF restart

We are having an issue with a scheduled task being deleted when the ColdFusion 10 Application Server is restarted.  We can set the task up again and it works fine until the Server is restarted.  After the restart the task is gone.

Any thoughts on this issue would be appreciated.

Thanks

I believe this is the info your asking for.  If not please let me know where to get the update level.

Server Product     ColdFusion

Version ColdFusion 10,282462

Edition     Standard 

Operating System Windows Server 2008 R2 

OS Version 6.1 

Adobe Driver Version 4.1 (Build 0001)  

The scheduled task is listed in the neo-cron.xml file and the neo-cron.bak file.

Let me give you some history on what happened and what he have tried.

A little over a week ago we had to restart Cold Fusion because it was locked up.  Could not find a reason as to why it went down but when it came back on line the neo-cron.xml file was blank as well as the .bak file.

We stopped the server and went to the back up that we have for C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\lib and pulled the neo-cron.xml and neo-cron.bak.  We replaced the ones that were blank with the ones from our backup into the directory. 

Started the server and when it started the schedule task did not show up.  Went back into the neo-cron.xml and the schedule task was not defined in the file any longer.  It's like the system over wrote the file on start up.  We then went in and recreated the scheduled task through the admin page and it updated the neo-cron.xml and neo-cron.bak with the scheduled task.  When you restart ColdFusion now the scheduled task disappears and we have to recreate through the admin page.

I guess in response we have tried using a backup of copy of the neo-cron.xml that defined the scheduled task and it did not work.

Thanks

Can you validate the neo-cron.xml?

I have validated the neo-cron.xml with what you supplied and it shows "no errors were found"

I am sorry I did not understand the version specially the .2 part What is the update level of CF 10?

Can you check the neo-cron.xml (C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\lib)??? Is the schedule task still there? If yes, then remove it, restart the CF 10 service and then observe the behavior.

If you have a a back up of neo-cron.xml, use that and then test the behavior.
