[Koha] Fines coming back after being paid. Calendar holidays problem?

[Raymund Delahunty]

We are receiving reports of fines returning to user accounts the day after they have been paid, or even soon after the payment was made. Our software support company is investigating and they have noticed the fines.pl script is overrunning. They have put some logging on the crontab entry in the meantime and have suggested we clear down the "closed days" (special holidays, repeatable holidays) on our system as they suggest this may be a cause of the fines job overrunning. Apparently the fines job references the calendar as it runs, and when the number of calendar entries builds up there may be problems. The special holidays count for previous years have been removed (420 lines) leaving this year and the next two, with a total count of 350 lines. We are not yet in a situation where we can raise this in Bugzilla, but I thought I'd ask if anyone else had encountered such a problem.
