We run four installs of IPB and only one of them is suffering from this problem.
We have writers who write entries that later require approval from an editor/admin. That's fine, works as expected.
But if the admin edits the piece and sets the publish date in the future, after approving it the article publishes automatically within the next hour or two. Sometimes it's immediate, sometimes it's five minutes, but it's publishing *way* ahead of schedule.
Is this a common bug in 4.7.9 and would providing system logs or anything else help to better explain the underlying issue?
