Package: drupal Version: 4.5.3-5 I noticed that the search database of drupal didn't get build after I installed drupal. Indeed, the cron-script checks if the cron.sh script is executable, which is not the case.
merel:/etc/cron.d$ cat drupal */5 * * * * www-data [ -x /usr/share/drupal/scripts/cron.sh ] && /usr/share/drupal/scripts/cron.sh merel:/etc/cron.d$ ls -l /usr/share/drupal/scripts/cron.sh -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 136 Jan 22 18:21 /usr/share/drupal/scripts/cron.sh merel:/etc/cron.d$ test -x /usr/share/drupal/scripts/cron.sh && echo found and executable merel:/etc/cron.d$ Solution: merel:/etc/cron.d$ chmod +x /usr/share/drupal/scripts/cron.sh regards, klaas
