Hi,

  Do I have to start something to crontab works?

configuration file:
#  MIN    HOUR   DAY/MONTH   MONTH   DAY/WEEK     USER        COMMAND
59 23 * * * root "/usr/local/etc/sarg/make-report" 0 0 * * 0 squid "/usr/local/etc/sbin/squid -k rotate"

It should generate a report every day, and clear the log file every week, but it isn't hapaning!
 What do I suppose to do?


Hello,

I checked my crontabs and I don't have double quotes around the path/script name. You could try to remove them.

Do the scripts work if you run them from the command line?

To check if cron is running, issue this command:

ps auwx | grep cron

The output should look something like this:

root 421 0.0 0.2 1312 896 ?? Is 8Mar06 0:05.41 /usr/sbin/cron -s

If cron isn't running, try this:

/etc/rc.d/cron start

Hope this helps,
Demian
