Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-106 Severity: normal
if one creates a cron job in cron.d , wait for the reload, change it again with a bad time, ie : * 222 * * * root echo > /dev/null cron will report cron[26144]: Error: bad hour; while reading /etc/cron.d/test2 then you can correct it, cron wont reload it, and wont pick up new files in this directory. thanks. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (550, 'stable'), (549, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30.5.2.6.30.5-2-ws.2009.09.01 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages cron depends on: ii adduser 3.111 add and remove users and groups ii debianutils 3.2.1 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.10.1-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpam0g 1.1.0-4 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 2.0.87-3 SELinux runtime shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip Versions of packages cron recommends: ii exim4 4.69-11 metapackage to ease Exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-heavy [mail-tran 4.69-11+b1 Exim MTA (v4) daemon with extended ii lockfile-progs 0.1.13 Programs for locking and unlocking Versions of packages cron suggests: pn anacron <none> (no description available) pn checksecurity <none> (no description available) ii logrotate 3.7.8-4 Log rotation utility -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
