Hi Marco,
I see your question didn’t get an answer yet. Maybe we can first try to find out what Jetty does (or does not):
When running standalone with Jetty, the scripts are executed even if, in this case, we are getting empty results when running jobs:services() in the DBA after startup.
Some questions back: 1. By 'standalone', do you mean that you are running 'basexhttp', or do you run Jetty and deploy BaseX as WAR file? 2. How does the jobs.xml file in the database directory look like?
Cheers, Christian
