You must get rid of the infinite loop!! :D
Scheduled tasks don't need the while(true) block, which by the way forces the thread from the thread pool to never return :shock:

That explains why you have those problems...

Please make sure to check out the example in the documentation, here:

OK. I thought I could have the thread run an infinite loop and just cancel it when something happens. Thanks, lapo.

Yeah ... bad idea :) ... this way you're blocking all threads in the thread pool. Definitely remove it and it will work as expected.

Also make sure to add the try/catch block as explained in the docs, otherwise a runtime exception could stop the task.

cheers
