I've got a question about the following cronjob.

#At 3:02 clean up sessions folder
2 0 * * * (find /www/r/rester/htdocs/sessions/ -name 'sess_*' -mtime +1 -delete)


#this is only for testing a new cronjob, every minute
* * * * * /usr/local/bin/php /www/r/rester/htdocs/phpList_cronjob/process_cronjob.php >>/www/r/rester/htdocs/phpList_cronjob/cron.log 2>>&1



The new one doesn't seem to want to run until after 3:01 or 3:02. Shouldn't the sever just run it every minute?


And, the every minute job doesn't add anything to its log file.

Apache on a virtual host. The 3:01 and 3:02 jobs have been running fine for months.

Thanks


The CRON daemon only refreshes it's job list after a job in the current list is completed. Therefore, the CRON daemon won't notice the "every-minute" job until 3.01 pm.
