"omd start <Site>" will return a crontab-related error, e.g. "Initializing
Crontab...You (TestSite) are not allowed to use this program (/usr/bin/crontab)"
Problem: The OS doesn't allow any users other than root to use crontab. I
don't know when this was changed, but that's how it is now.
Fix: As root, edit /etc/cron.allow and add the user/site name. One per line. Fortunately omd generates the
crontab for a site on every start, so just do "omd stop <site>" and "omd start
<site>" and it will generate the crontab and start correctly.
I think the OMD devs will need to update the omd "create" script to add the
site user to /etc/cron.allow.
I have omd running on multiple SL6.4 systems here and have not seen this
issue on any of them. None of these systems have a cron.allow file
anywhere in /etc. Could that be something that was configured on your
system locally? I could be wrong, but I don't think it's set up from a
default install of SL.
