Description

I set up my workflow and it works really well. However, the schedule for state change, which I used for publishing, doesn't work at all. eg at 09:30 am I set it at "09:50" and wait for the item to publish and it never happens. is the time format wrong (i used HH:MM)... or I need to set it up somewhere that I missed? (to me schedule is a not really needed optional, but it would be a nice to have if it works).

By the way, the state works per se for publishing content. thanks! Huj

Scheduler needs cron to run. Didn't you forget it?

Thanks for your reminder: I thought by scheduler, like MS scheduler it is scheduler that means what it is supposed to mean, a trigger for event to happen at a point of time: no? so if either I use unix or ms scheduler to crontab it, then why do i still need this scheduler here?! I don't get it: since either can set time triggered event down to the second and with repetitions at discretion... Huj
