1st question (as always): what version of HostMonitor do you use?

If you do not use too old version, I would say "Scheduler works correctly".
Problem appears for 2 reasons:
- you are using the same record and changing mode from regular to daily or weekly for testing. Then action will not be started because it already was started (by "regular" option). Daily - means action will not be started in the same day. Weekly mean action will not be started this week anymore.
- you are changing system time back and forward to perform testing. Result will be the same - HostMonitor will not start action because if it was started before.
HostMonitor remembers when exactly action was executed.

Solution? Do not play with these options. Set parameters that you need and leave HostMonitor in peace, it will start actions next day or next week (unless you already tried to change system date for tomorrow).
