Question

Scheduled Tasks running more than once

I have a bunch of scheduled tasks setup to run hourly. For whetever reason, the tasks seem to be running 2-3 times at the scheduled time instead of just once. I've put a <cflog> call in the template being called to confirm that all calls are coming from the expected source and there isn't something else calling the template, and everything looks fine. Anybody know of any bug in CF 8 where scheduled tasks ran multiple times for whatever reason?

Thanks,

    No, but I have heard of many times where people had configured multiple ColdFusion services to call the same schedule task.  This can be from different physical servers or the same server with multi-home or j2ee ColdFusion configurations.

    Yeah, that was my first instinct. But then I stuck a URL variable in my scheduled task URL in the CF admin of the server I would expect the call to be made from. I then made my cflog call log the query string, and all the calls have the URL variable in them. So doesn't seem to be different physical server and as far as I know the configuration of the CF server is the regular one, not multi.
