I want a cron expression that represents 6th September 2010 6:00 am Original question was tagged cron so this first section applies to that. See below for an updated answer for the Quartz CronTrigger tool. Most crontabs don't let you specify the year so you'll probably have to put that in the script itself (or a wrapper around the script/program). You can do this with something like: if [[ $(date +%Y) != 2010 ]] ; then exit fi The option you're looking for to run at 6am on September 6 every year is 0 6 6 9 * your_command_goes_here | | | | | | | | | +- any day of the week. | | | +--- 9th month

I am using Quartz-Scheduler for repetitive tasks but I am facing a trouble. In my server side my user wants to specify some date range like From 2013-09-27 with in 09:00 AM - 12:00 PM to 2013-09-30 Explanation: Run a job from 2013-09-27 to 2013-09-30 but only between 09:00 AM - 12:00 PM I am facing trouble in writing a Cron expression for it, furthermore my user is non-technical so my user wants me to create Cron expression automatically from both time stamp values. Please help me out. Let me know if there is another way. I have seen many resources on Google but I still can't find nothing.

I received the error below when I use Spring 3 with Quartz 2. Does anyone knows the reason? Error: Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.CannotLoadBeanClassException: Error loading class [org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.JobDetailBean] for bean with name 'job' defined in class path resource [beans.xml]: problem with class file or dependent class; nested exception is java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: class org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.JobDetailBean has interface org.quartz.JobDetail as super class at org.springframework.beans.factory.support

I am a bit new to Quartz. Is there a way to update the job execution interval for an already submitted Quartz job? Does this interval get updated immediately? Do you have to start the job once again after rescheduling it? I found the following link but I don't know which libraries is the code referring to since my quartz jars don't contain some of the classes used in the link. Also, where did the triggerKey method come from? Is this some kind of a static import? http://www.quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/2.4.0-SNAPSHOT/cookbook/UpdateTrigger.html I want to update the job execution interval

I'm quite new to Quartz and now I need to schedule some jobs in Spring web application. I know about Spring + Quartz integration (I'm using Spring v 3.1.1) but I'm wondering if this is the right way to follow. In particular I need to persist my scheduled tasks in a DB so I can re-initialize them when application is restarted. Are there some utilities provided by Spring scheduling wrapper to do this? Can you suggest me some "well known" approach to follow? Here is one way I handle this scenario. First in my Spring Configuration I specify a SchedulerFactoryBean from which I can inject the

I'm using quartz in my web application (Servlet web app) following is snap of quartz.property file and the quartz.job.xml quartz.property #=================================================== # Configure the Job Initialization Plugin #=================================================== org.quartz.plugin.jobInitializer.class = org.quartz.plugins.xml.XMLSchedulingDataProcessorPlugin org.quartz.plugin.jobInitializer.fileNames = jobs.xml org.quartz.plugin.jobInitializer.failOnFileNotFound = true org.quartz.plugin.jobInitializer.scanInterval = 10 org.quartz.plugin.jobInitializer

I'm using the currently latest quartz 1.8.3 on jboss 4.0.5. The quartz jobs are persistent and saved into a local database. When I call the shutdown or standby method on the executing quartz scheduler object jobs still continue to execute by the scheduler, only that the jobs state is empty and the execution fails. I would expect (at least according to quartz API documentation) that when I shutdown or make the scheduler standby, that jobs previously scheduled into the database will not be executed. If calling shutdown or standby on the scheduler is not the method to achieve that, what is? The

Assuming that I have a CronTriggerBean similar to <bean id="midMonthCronTrigger" class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.CronTriggerBean"> <property name="jobDetail" ref="reminderJobDetail" /> <property name="cronExpression" value="0 0 6 15W * ?" /> </bean> What is the best way to test that this bean will actually trigger at its specified date, i.e. on the weekday closest to the 15th of each month at 6 AM? Update : This is supposed to be an unit test, so I'm not going to fire up a VM or change the system time. Well firstly, there's no point in testing CronTriggerBean itself. It's part of
