Hi Steve,

I'm getting a error occuring in Cumulus occasionally and I don't know why...

A notice came up on my PC screen saying I had to give the bugreport.txt file to you on the forum so I've attached it below.

Thanks,

Windows is complaining that it can't start a new timer (because there are too many already) when Cumulus tries to start a timeout timer for an ftp connection. It could be a bug in Cumulus where perhaps it doesn't cancel a timer in certain circumstances, or the problem could be elsewhere on the system. I'll try to find some time to have a look to see if I can see whether it could be a problem in Cumulus.

Yes I think there is a problem in Cumulus. There is certainly no problem with the FTP on my website.

Hi Steve,

It seems to have happened again. Is it the same issue?

Please find attached 'bugreport.txt'.

Thanks,

Yes, same problem. Apparently the 'not enough timers' error message can be misleading; the runtime returns this error if it's unable to start a timer for any reason.

You seem to hit the problem when Cumulus has been running for three days; do you ever get it to run for longer than this?
