It does appear to be firing randomly, for example, the below from the top of my server.log file today :

2013-07-19 02:49:24 [INFO] [DailyLog] << LOG START >>

I run bukkit dev build 2815 on my live server just like you and I'm not having any issues. I will most likely need add a debugging feature to try to resolve this issue. My "feeling" is another plugin may be "unscheduling" the timed event. Until I can get the debugging feature in place, you can either update the ticket with a list of plugins you use, or even just PM me with the list of plugins.

Did the random firing below archive the file? As I understand if a server is under excessive load, the timed events may not happen when they are supposed to happen due to tick timing. Do you have a low TPS by chance?

Hi mc.

It IS firing, and working as expected when it does. And it seems to be running closer to the scheduled time -

• 2013-07-20 00:02:09
• 2013-07-21 00:04:55
• 2013-07-22 00:12:54
• 2013-07-23 00:03:10
• 2013-07-24 00:00:13
• 2013-07-25 00:01:25

Personally this kind of variance doesn't bother me - the fact it now appears to be running once every 24 hours is fine. So - don't take any further action on this on my behalf, I'm happy if you close it, but if you wanted to look into it for own curiosity, then fair enough :-)

FYI the list of plugins is below. I'm on a high-spec machine with plenty of memory, can't say I've ever noticed the tick count below 18-19.

bPermissions, FlightPack, WorldEdit, BattleTracker, AutoShutdown, Vault, PlayerHeads, LogBlock, YetAnotherSwearingFilter, MobileAdmin, TreeAssist, WorldGuard, dynmap, AutoRanker, EpicBossRecoded, TreasureChest, OpenInv, Email, DailyLog, VariableTriggers, ClearLag, MobArena, afkTerminator, Essentials, WorldBorder, QuickShop, Citizens, CityWorld, ChessCraft, CreeperHeal, VanishNoPacket, Multiverse-Core, AntiXRay, EssentialsChat, GriefPrevention, NaturalHorses, Multiverse-Portals, Multiverse-Inventories, Multiverse-SignPortals, Multiverse-NetherPortals, Dynmap-GriefPrevention, HomeSpawnPlus, BattleArena, ArenaSpleef

Fair enough and thanks for all the good input/feedback!

I am going to discuss it with another programmer and find out if there is a better way to schedule the task.
