[Zope] Xron problem solved (I think)

[tom smith]

I've been having problems with Xron firing off reliably but now I've fixed
it. I'm not sure exactly what fixed it but here's what I did.

1 Reinstalled Xron and restarted Zope (don't think this did it).
2. Made sure all my Xron Methods had the security needed by selecting
manager/owner (Don't think it was this either)
3. My Xron method called External Methods , so I set the External Method to
have an Anonymous / View in it's security tab. (It may have been this)
4. My external method, although it had a dtml-try/except clause in it was
failing. I removed the bits that failed completely. (it could have been this
too!)
5. I repeatedly hit Update in the Schedule ( random clicks sometimes fixes
stuff doesn't it?)

I also did loads of other stuff but I think it was one of the above...

If you've been having these problems I hope this helps

Good luck

tom
