Hi list,

on a few servers (TSL 2.0 and 2.2) I noticed that fcron stopped working this
night at 04.00. The log ends with:

May  6 03:01:00 mail fcron[9396]: Job run-parts /etc/cron.hourly started for
user root (pid 9397)
May  6 03:01:01 mail fcron[9396]: Job run-parts /etc/cron.hourly completed
May  6 04:01:00 mail fcron[9463]: Job run-parts /etc/cron.hourly started for
user root (pid 9464)
May  6 04:01:01 mail fcron[9463]: Job run-parts /etc/cron.hourly completed
May  6 04:02:00 mail fcron[9468]: Job run-parts /etc/cron.daily started for user
root (pid 9469)
May  6 04:09:16 mail fcron[9468]: Job run-parts /etc/cron.daily completed

No entries in the log since then.

service fcron status shows: fcron (pid 10204 9468 9456 11391) is running...

ps aux on the pid's above:
root     10204  0.0  0.0     0    0 ?        Z    May06   0:00 [fcron] <defunct>
root      9468  0.0  0.0     0    0 ?        Z    May06   0:00 [fcron] <defunct>
root      9456  0.0  0.0     0    0 ?        Z    May06   0:00 [fcron] <defunc
root     11391 10.9  0.0  1628  360 ?        R    Apr07 5122:54 fcron

After a restart of fcron, all works fine. I had this issue on 4 out of 23
servers.

Any ideas?
