[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Overdue Fines Issue

[JonGeorg SageLibrary]

I had gotten that format from one of our internal documents, and it didn't
work with or without sudo, or as opensrf or root. Running /openils/bin/
fine_generator.pl /openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml as opensrf did work
correctly. Thank you for pointing that out - I updated the documentation,
and of course that makes sense because that matches what the crontab listed
which I feel silly for not checking earlier.

When I pull up action.circulation.stop_fines and stop_fines_time I get
nothing for that item.
