If a cron tasks fails to end successfully you may see a Clear Task Lock link next to the task. Clicking this link will remove the lock on the task and allow it to run again. Typically task locks will clear on their own. Frequently occurring task locks are an indication that there is an issue with your server or with Blesta. Check the Cron Log for additional details. |
