Hi Kevin,

Thanks for this info, on an (maybe) unrelated problem, I have a few
catalogs that use the LinkPoint (Yourpay) gateway. These gateways break
with a curl connection error every time anyone hits "apply changes" on
any catalog in the entire system. Even if the catalog that hits "apply
changes" does not use any gateway at all, It breaks the LinkPoint
gateway on all other catalogs that use it.  When I get a chance, I will
test an see if your method of restarting a catalog also breaks
LinkPoint. I will let the IC list know on another thread.

Thanks
