Public bug reported: Binary package hint: likewise-open
This is essentially the same bug as this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/likewise-open5/+bug/408947 What has happened now is that Upstart handles the order in which services are started, the result is that cron is once again started before likewise-open. The result is that @reboot jobs never get run for users of likewise-open. Either cron needs to be delayed, or likewise needs to pre-empt cron. The following is a summary of the original bug: "Given the domain user shadwickt, I have jobs set in that user's crontab to run @reboot. That user does not have a local account on the system. At reboot, the following gets written to syslog: Jul 31 10:11:41 shadwickt-desk /usr/sbin/cron[4269]: (CRON) STARTUP (fork ok) Jul 31 10:11:41 shadwickt-desk /usr/sbin/cron[4269]: (shadwickt) ORPHAN (no passwd entry) Jul 31 10:11:41 shadwickt-desk /usr/sbin/cron[4269]: (CRON) INFO (Running @reboot jobs) That user's personal crontab gets skipped for @reboot jobs. Later crontabs do work." ** Affects: likewise-open (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- reboot local crontabs do not run for likewise-open domain users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/605123 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
