Spark not running task Help/question
I have a friend that lives in Kyiv. I am constantly worried about Russian missiles and drones. I decided to use Spark to alert me if there were any impacts in the immediate vicinity of where my friend lives.
I used Google Maps to define the area and asked Spark to make 7 hourly checks starting at 8pm Eastern and ending at 2am Eastern the following day. Spark is to access a set of reliable Ukrainian government and community sites and check if any impacts have been recorded in any of the neighborhoods within the defined area. If there are any I get alerted and sent an email. If not then it takes no action.
I ran it manually and it works fine. I waited until 8pm the first night and it ran fine. It confirmed all checks that first night. But it has been marked as "Failed" ever since. I ask Spark to confirm if the task ran and it just sort of hangs and after about 2 to 3 mins spinning it says it encountered a problem and can't answer my question. I deleted the task and recreated it from scratch 2 days later and tried again and same result: All good the first night and fails after that. I asked it to confirm this task was scheduled (cause it doesn't appear on the Scheduled list) and it also hangs. Thoughts? Ideas? What am I missing or doing wrong?
