Thanks! Cool thing number 1000 about Zope--the folks who build pieces for it write back to you when you've got questions! It's a fairly new installation, but it's worked on some other things. I'll try to see if I can wrangle some more test information.

I'm guessing you are running this on Win98. True? That shouldn't be a problem.
What the second message in the log says is that, when the Dispatcher woke up and tried to get the next scheduled event from the Schedule (which is a ZCatalog), it encountered a ConflictError. The third message says the Dispatcher terminated, something it has to do in this situation; otherwise, it would go into a loop trying to access the Schedule.
I can't see why there is a conflict error -- perhaps it has to do with the first message in the log. It probably has nothing to do with the content of the scheduled method, because that method wasn't executed yet. IIUC, a conflict error occurrs when it looks to Zope that two transactions are trying to update the same ZODB resource. This may be a transient occurrence, or may be caused by a stalled transaction hogging the resource.
If you were running on Unix you could kill off a thread or two and see if the other ones proceed. But I don't think you can do that on Win.
I don't think I can pinpoint your problem, but here are a few questions to ask:
Does this situation occur only after a fresh install of Xron? ...or have you successfully run other Xron methods?
Is this situation repeatable, even after restarting Zope?
Are there any recent transactions that you can undo to eliminate the cause of the first message in the log?

I'm getting the following errors when I try to run a Xron as scheduled task. I can trigger the Xron method manually and it will work. The method is at the bottom of this message. Any ideas what is happening? Thanks-- Chris
