RoyK, its been difficult to work on this as its not clear how to
reproduce yet. I'm wondering if this has to do with alternative
user/group sources like ldap and such. runlevel 2 happens before the
network is up, so calls to getent() for users that don't exist might
cause a failure. This would affe
We're seeing this on a number of servers. Starting cron manually after
bootup is obviously a solution, albeit obviously not really a good one.
Are anyone working on this at all???

Happy to help.
I checked the whole of syslog back to January and see no mention of
"cronlogger" there either. Same for the whole daemon log.
Cron didn't run at boot after booting with the edited cron.conf file.
I removed the edit last night and booted again this morning. Cron not running

Evening, Clint.
I edited my cron.conf file as above to:
# cron - regular background program processing daemon

# cron is a standard UNIX program that runs user-specified programs at
# periodic scheduled times

start on runlevel [234
Ok I'm marking it Confirmed because so many people have found that they
are affected.
Now we still need some help reproducing it. I'm wondering if we need to
change cron.conf to log crond's stdout/stderr.
If somebody who is affected could change /etc/init/cron.conf to remove
the 'expect fork' and
I think I may also have this problem.
Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid LTS 32bit.
Cron will now not start after boot-up, and as above, my box has had
several recent hard starts. I don't have console-tools though - I
already have KBD.
Yesterday, I managed to use the workaround boot / sudo cron stop / boot

We have a mix environment of Debian and Ubuntu and we use puppet for
configuration management. One of our recipes for Debian include console-
tools as a dependency. We reused that recipe in some of ours Ubuntu
Lucid 64 bit servers until we discovered that a group of services did
not start at boot
Looking in daemon.log from our last reboot, I see this:
Jan 27 02:00:00 dev1 init: cron main process (3627) killed by TERM

And then during bootup, I see:
Jan 27 02:02:43 dev1 init: cron main process (1007) killed by TERM
signal
I don't have any syslog data right now because for some reas
Taking a look at this bug, and I'm wondering if there are any log
entries that could be helpful in determining why cron isn't running.
Could somebody who has experienced this please look through their log
files, especially /var/log/daemon.log and /var/log/syslog, for anything
from crond.

This bug was reported on 2010-06-10 for an Ubuntu LTS release and since today
there is no fix released?
For me this means the latest LTS release is completely useless or is there a
fix available?

Furthermore, this was on a 32-bit desktop (laptop, really) install, so
it may be worth amending the title of this bug to make it more generic
than "amd64 server".

I saw this on a fresh Lucid laptop install at some point after applying
security updates two weeks ago. Cron had not been running since 10 Sept
2010, and running "sudo stop cron" caused it to reappear on next boot.
This bug caused data backup jobs not to run, and could have been
disastrous.

I have the problem, too. I have not found a workaround. I am running
10.04 on an AMD64 processor. It seems I'll have to drop back a version.

One more note (Launchpad should allow edits). This problem is only
upstart getting cron running on boot. I haven't had a problem with it
continuing to run after that.
