Here's my configuration in backends.xml and cron.xml respectively:
<backends>
<backend name="score">
<class>B1</class>
<instances>2</instances>
<options>
<dynamic>true</dynamic>
</options>
</backend></backends>
and
<cronentries><cron>
<url>/ProcessingEngine</url>
<description>Get Posts</description>
<schedule>every 45 minutes</schedule>
<target>score</target>
</cron></cronentries>
I configured it this way so as to call the Backend job through cron.xml. But, for some reason, the Backend is not triggered and I don't see any logs that indicate Backend code has been executed. The Cron Tab in Admin section of AppEngine says the cron failed.
Note: I am able to run the Backend job via Admin console's Start button.
