Did you mean to post this as an answer to this question? What environment? What variables? Please don't post identical answers. Either the questions are the same (so vote to close as duplicates) or adapt the answer to each question.

While this answer is generically true, it doesn't answer the question in a useful (specific) way. This answer would be useful to troubleshoot the situation, but clarifying the situation is better done as comments to the Question. Then the question can be updated with the details, and once the actual problem has been found, a specific Answer can be written up.
