[closed] bug/error: Birthday Bot posting same birthdays every hour.

[MrEprise]

Just noticed in General Chat that the birthdays for Tcsltd & edebonis have been posted by the birthday bot several times, and these are occuring at 12 minutes past each hour.

 

There is also several separate threads, again posted at 12 mins past each hour for the users colio66 & ian586.

 

Im sure it never used to do this, although maybe the bot is getting a bit over-excited about these birthdays.

Just came here to post the exact same thing..

Cleared out 10 dupe posts but will have to wait for ZH to be about to provide a long term solution, probably a chron job that has somehow been set to every hour rather than every day.

I have disabled it for now until I find the cause. It did work before but not found the bug yet.
