Just submit the modules page, scheduler should be enabled after submission.

Hi,

I have the same problem. I need to install job scheduler due to Feeds. I've tried to delete the module and add it again, but I still can't enable it. I tried to reload the module page if that what is meant by "Just submit the modules page". Right now I can't even run cron manually without ending up with: "Fatal error: Call to undefined function job_scheduler() in /smi/web/annikalidne.com/sites/all/modules/feeds/includes/FeedsImporter.inc on line 96"

I have other modules that are depentant on cron and it looks pretty bad with old information on the page.

I'm not a developer and I don't understand the readme. Do I have to put things into settings.php just to get it to work normally? Why can't I enable it?

Please help!

Annika

With submit I mean, hit the "Save configuration" button on the bottom of the screen:

Job Scheduler should be enabled after submission - is it not?

I hade same issue, think either save configuration or clear cache / cron run or run updates solves this, probably the first one :-)

I am wondering how does job scheduler work? Is it run on cron run? Will it run on manaul cron run?

#4: The admin/build/modules page *must be submitted* when that box is greyed out. No other tricks. Let's not confuse newcomers to this thread.

Runs on cron.

OK, the check box to enable the job scheduler module does not work as other module enabling check boxes. It requires me to click repeatedly and I do not get any feedback (box gets checked) before I click submit. Just so you know.

I know. Just submit module form.

As alex b has said four times, hitting the 'Save configuration' submit button enables this module.

But just out of curiosity, why does it work that way? I felt a bit crazy before checking the issue queue.

Also, maybe this should be added to the readme?
