Hi All, I have a slight issue with regards to a crontab & cacti. I'm relatively novice with regards to linux but I can work my head around it pretty well, and I'd like to consider myself half knowledgeable but i've struck a dead end and not sure what other troubleshooting I am able to do.
Below is my current /etc/crontab SHELL=/bin/sh PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin 17 * * * * root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly 25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) 47 6 * * 7 root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly ) 52 6 1 * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly ) * /5 * * * * www-data php /usr/share/cacti/site/poller.php >/dev/null 2>/var/log/cacti/poller-error.log * /5 * * * * root ls -al /home/risbo/public_html/ > /var/log/testingcron.log Before this, the first 'non-default' crontab was located in /etc/cron.d/ under the file 'cacti'. The second cron is purely testing that cron is actually working which in fact it is since it generates the log. When I execute the php via CLI, cacti poll's the said devices and it works fine however it's just not budging when done via a cron. Is there any other server side testing I can do or would it appear to be a issue where I would have to talk to the cacti developers about? Additional thing to note is that early today the machine was powered down for 2 hours, which on power restoration it just simply stopped graphing. Appreciate any help!
