Stuck "Queued Tasks" | Not Auto-Processing

The stuck queue had a process continuously being processed but its CPU was idling.
I reset the queue by renaming /mod/etc/queue.db
The list emptied and I added a file to decrypt but the file never gets processed.
I ran a fixdisk...the fault remains.

I have added several more files but non get processes (all are PENDING).
Note. Auto-processing set to rub every 10 minutes but no other files get added automatically.

Here are my current running processes:

Any ideas what I should try next?
 
What's in /mod/tmp/auto.log ?
Check the Auto-Processing Settings.
You may need to increase the Log Level to a more detailed level.
 
Part from webif okay?

P.S. Having problems with sluggish website or its my browser/OS.
Code "</>" option seems dysfunctional. What the manual entry for it look like please?
Also Font size also non-funcional?
 
Wait....units been on some time and now its looking OK. What's that all about?
List is updated and decryption is running (actual processing, as webif is sluggish...or is it my browser...!)

Kicked off at 15:00. why did it take so long.
 
I'm sure you can read "Cannot decrypt in standby" as well as I can. If it wasn't in standby, then it was seemingly in some odd mode and Reboot/Power Cycle is an obvious first choice.

its fully booted. Noted several logs were dated 15th May.
Its not been used actively for several days though.

Update.
So a decryption started and several files auto-added (I don't know why though).
Checking later, I now see a list of decrypted files queued for ad detection but nothing happening. Seems stuck again.

Ad detection is a very slow process so it can take a long to process the backlog, It also has a lower priority for queue processing than other tasks,
The webif status display or command line status command will show whether decryption is currently running.
