SYMPTOMS
Dispatch tries to spawn External as an idle process and then Dispatch aborts the idle process and reports:

external -btxx:xx:xx terminated with exit code -1

If specified, -bt will be replaced with -bdxx-xx-xx.



CAUSE
The command line for External contains break time options -bt or -bd. Dispatch appends a break relative time to the idle process command line automatically; thus, it cannot resolve the proper break time if -bt or -bd is already specified.



RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, do not run External with a defined break time.
