The second condition depends on how do you execute cron. Could you paste your "crontab -e"? BTW, this should go into support lists, not development.

I would agree both those statements should cause a return when the code is trigged by cron. What hook is the code in? And the fact other values change should be a clue, what is changing that you do not expect to change? Nevets
