Right: still running after 60+ seconds. It's a little tricky to distinguish (in real time, anyway) between abnormal exits and long-running cron jobs, though in the former case you're likely to see other messages as well, I think. If you see that message a lot, and you suspect that you might just have a long-running cron job, try scheduling it less frequently (every 5 or 10 minutes, maybe) and see if it goes away. Assuming you're running hardcron, you might also do a ps and see whether you've got a lot of web2py processes running; that would be a bad sign. > > On Nov 20, 6:04 am, leone <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hi, >> what means WARNING:web2py.cron:WEB2PY CRON: Stale cron.master >> detected? >> My crontab: >> #crontab >> 1 * * * * root *plugin_CRONTAB/test >> >> (ubuntu os, last rel web2py) >> Thanks in advance
