[opencms-dev] Incomplete static export jobs

[John Weible]

No one replied to my post about this problem, but I thought I'd follow 
up by saying that a restart of Tomcat has restored this to normal 
behavior.  I'm still concerned because we have no idea what the cause 
was or whether it will return.  I did forget to say in my first message 
we're running v. 7.0.1 and have been for months. 

Cheers,
- John
