Oh, really? I'm not beginner... Anyway, thanks... Solution was weird...
When I deleted /var/log/cron file, then touched /var/log/cron and then started cron - everything went back to normal. Why the f&(#$^%* it wasn't working, I don't understabd... /var/log/cron was small (~30k), "df -k /var/log" gave me about 1 Gig of free space... Yet, cron was not working... ----- Original Message ----- To: "Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 13:23 > $ps xea | grep crond > > Will show you if the cron process is running or not.... > > -rje > > > VB> Hello to everyone... > > VB> Red Hat 6.2 > > VB> How do I find out what is wrong with cron?
