Notification value not incrementing

[nagios at cooldarkplace.org]

I seem to be having a problem getting the notification value on some
host/services in a critical/warning state to increment their notification
value.  This is in turn preventing notifications/esclations after the
first one to ever go out.

In order to test more quickly, i've gone as far as to set up a service
with a notification interval and check interval of 1 minut, and after
several hours in a critical state, its Current Notification Number is
still at 1.

I've upgraded to the newest available cvs 2.x tree(I was using a version
about 2 weeks old before that), and the problem still remains.

By using the View Config option in the nagios web gui I've confirmed that
the service is indeed reading the values i've set it to, so I'm reasonably
sure that its not an off value being caused by some rouge template.


I've also checked it out in the objects.cache and status.dat.  The one
thing I see that bothers me is that no_more_notifications is reading 1,
but I'm not familiar enough with the internal logic to discern if this is
the source of my problem or how to correct it.  Relevant bits of
objects.cache and status.dat are below.  Any help greatly appreciated:

define service {
        host_name       nagiostestserver
        service_description     MSSQL Server Agent

        check_command   check_nrpe!check_SQLServerAgent
        contact_groups  dump,nagios-admins
        notification_period     24x7

        flap_detection_enabled  1
        freshness_threshold     0
        check_freshness 0
        notification_options    u,w,c,r
        notifications_enabled   1
        notification_interval   1
        stalking_options        n
        process_perf_data       1

        retain_status_information       1
        retain_nonstatus_information    1
        }


heres the ouput from status.dat for said service:
