[hobbit] ALERTS time of day problem

[Mike Rowell]

Henrik,

Thought it might be something like that, as a temporary fix I've created
three different versions of the hobbit-alerts.cfg file and set cronjob's
to move them into place as and when they are required.

If we've got a beta due I'll wait for that, try it on my dev platform
first if it's okay for a day I'll move it to the test (which is actually
the redundant BB server), then to live, probably early week after the
beta.

Mike

You mentioned you were running the 4.2pre version, which is a rather
early snapshot of the 4.2 release. I do believe this has been fixed in
the current code; what happens is that basically the alert code would
ignore the general criteria like TIME when used together with a MAIL
setting.

So - I'd like you to try it out with the current snapshot (which will be
a beta-release in a day or two).


Regards,
Henrik
