CF 5 Scheduler, timeout setting being ignored.

Ok there is a scheduled task setup in CF Scheduler via CF Admin, now it all works fine, unless the file takes longer than the set Coldfusion Request Timeout.

Setting the Request Timeout for the task in CF Scheduler and/or appending it to the URI in the task (as a last resort) should help, but it doesn't - it's as though the Timeout settings set via CF Scheduler are being ignored.

To further confuse the problem, if I call the file directly in a browser with ?requesttimeout=10000 it all works fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Any solution found for this problem?

We are having the same problem and have been unable to find a solution. Did you ever find a solution?

It's been a while, but I seem to remember that it was a bug in cfscheduler in CF5 - we ended up using a <cfsetting> tag at the begging of the script & running it with a windows scheduled task - bit of a backwards way to do it but it worked.
