Scheduler is not picking up the next job

Hi,

Recently we copied over our production
schedule.dat into development environment. After that we have been experiencing some schedule related problems

Problem
-------------------
e.g Job 1-- Kicks off in time based mode

Job 2-- Kicks off after Job 1 completes and the semaphore file is created

Job 3-- Kicks off after Job 2 completes and the semaphore file is created

What happens now is that only Job 1 executes. The semaphore file is created and nothing else happens.
When we look at the scheduler it says the "Event has been ignored since the job is already queued"

Work around
---------------
After I restart the 24*7 service, the job executes normally.

Given
-----------------
Currently there is only 1 active job in the environment.
The rest have been disabled to rule out queuing issues.

Thank you,

Best Regards,

Soumitra

The issue here seems to be job queuing. Please note that the .DAT file doesn't contain queue information. You either need to copy related registry settings or recreate these queues by hand.
