Scheduling posts function not working... (6 posts)

    I have been scheduling my posts for awhile now, but recently since last week, every time I set a post to schedule, it doesn't work. When I check the post to see what happened, it says "missed schedule." It is not publishing my scheduled posts. Can someone please explain to me what I need to do to correct this????

    Thanks!!

    Has anyone visited the front end of the blog lately?

    Are you using WPMU or single WP?

    I'm having the same problem. It's been happening for the past 2 weeks.

    I'm using WPMU, and have been on the dashboard recently.

    I had a similar problem (wp-cron never firing). I found this worked for me.

    We continue to have this problem. I'm not sure entirely when it started, but it may have been with the original upgrade to 2.9. We're currently on 2.9.1.1 and I can reliably reproduce the problem both in our production environment as well as in 2.9.2 (in test).

    We're using a subdomain-based setup, with <blogname>.blog.<domain> as the base page for all blogs. I can get all "missed schedule" posts to post on a given blog by manually navigating to <blogname>.blog.<domain>/wp-cron.php.

    Changing the timeout in cron.php, and/or turning on WP_ALTERNATE_CRON doesn't seem to change the problem.

    Thoughts? It seems many things that are resolving this issue for people don't work in our setup for some reason...
