Symptoms

When the timer expires the @Timeout method is called 4 times.
This happens when the timer is cancelled and new timer is created with:
TimerService timerService;
Timer timer = timerService.createCalendarTimer(se, new TimerConfig("TIMER1", false));

It works fine when a new timer is created without second parameter new TimerConfig():
Timer timer = timerService.createCalendarTimer(se);
