1. Check the date and time settings on your server. If the time on your server is incorrect, this can cause issues with timed events.
2. Double-check your event scheduler configuration. Make sure that your events are set up with the correct time zone and that the interval is set correctly.
3. Ensure that the task scheduler service is running on your server. This service is responsible for running timed events on schedule.
4. If none of these suggestions help, try restarting the task scheduler service and see if that resolves the issue.
My timed events seem to be off. They run a lot later then they should. What's more, I can not manually run a timed event. Any ideas?

I responded to this same question from you in the Synchronet Discussion foru already. Did you not see it?
Hi Tim, thank you for reaching out. It sounds like your timed events may nee to be adjusted. Here are a few things you can try:
1. Check the date and time settings on your server. If the time on your serv is incorrect, this can cause issues with timed events.
2. Double-check your event scheduler configuration. Make sure that your even are set up with the correct time zone and that the interval is set correctly
3. Ensure that the task scheduler service is running on your server. This service is responsible for running timed events on schedule.
4. If none of these suggestions help, try restarting the task scheduler serv and see if that resolves the issue.
If these suggestions don't resolve the issue, please let me know and we can explore further.

These did not work. It seems the only way I can get the events to run is to shut down and restart Synchronet. Once restarted the events will run for a couple of hours then quit. For example I reboot before going to work, the system is fine, I come home and no events have ran since 6:00 am in the morning. (Which is when I leave for work.)
Check your event log when this happens. It will tell you the last event that was/is running and that even is likely just stuck (not returning control to BBS).

I've been watching the event log. I'll reboot the BBS and events will run fine. I come back several hours later and the last event that ran was:
06:53.07a BINKPOLL Connecting to 618:300/1@micronet at realitycheckBBS.org:24554
06:53.07a BINKPOLL Will encrypt session.
06:53.07a BINKPOLL Peer version: BinkIT/2.41,JSBinkP/4,sbbs3.20a/Win32 06:53.07a BINKPOLL Authentication successful: non-secure
Under the Services log, things keep running
The last entry being:
3/23 06:47:18p 3384 BINKP service terminated (0 clients remain, 0 total, 128 served)
This is from yesterday, but it's been like that for the last couple of days.

We made a hub change a few weeks back. realitycheckBBS is no longer hub for net300. You'll need to get a new nodelist (I should have sent one to you via email, check your SPAM folder...)
If not, you could download the most recent nodelist from https://www.minftn.net/ and it'll have the correct information for 300/1.
Is it always polling the same hub when this issue happens?

Thank you for your help. I hadn't updated for the changes on Micronet. It was hanging up when trying to poll it. Now everything is working again.

That was it, it was hanging up trying to poll Micronet. Thank
you for the help. It's amazing how something like this can
really mess things up.
