I have noanacron installed on a fresh centos 7 install. I added this too settings. nano /etc/cron.d/0hourly */5 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.fiveminutes */1 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.minute 0,30 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.halfhour and then created the directories for it. Now I keep getting these errors in secure log. **** pam_systemd(crond:session): Failed to create session:

For some reason I cannot fathom, cron.hourly runs twice each hour on one of my two CentOS-5.4 systems, as reported in /var/log/cron: ------------------------- Mar 16 14:01:01 helen crond[27833]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly) Mar 16 14:01:01 helen crond[27834]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly) ------------------------- On the other it just runs once, as expected.

I need to remove empty files out of a directory that are over 6 hours old so I created this script and put it in cron.hourly. #!/bin/sh cd /var/list sudo -u matt find /var/list -mmin +360 -empty -user matt -exec rm {} \; I want to run it as matt rather than root for just an added bit of safety. Problem is I get this. "sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo" Is there another

Hi, Up until now I always kept my servers up-to-date manually. Currently I'm experimenting with yum-cron to automate this process. I read through various online tutorials, and now I have a couple questions. 1. As far as I know, when editing /etc/yum/yum-cron.conf, I can only use the following value for update_cmd : update_cmd = default If I understand this correctly, 'update_cmd =

Oops, yes CentOS 7, sorry. For the record: # service anacron

I've just noticed that cron.daily, etc, do not seem to be running on my CentOS-5.4 system. The scripts in /etc/cron.d/ all run fine, but those in /etc/cron.hourly, etc, seem to be ignored. I see that according to /var/log/cron these commands are seen, eg Feb 28 18:01:01 helen crond[6680]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly) but none of the scripts in this directory seem to be touched.

> > So, service is running but what could happen that makes /etc/cron.* not > being fired? You don't say, but if this is CentOS 7, then cron.daily/weekly/monthly is run using anacron, not cron. It's configured in /etc/anacrontab and is usually run once a day by the script /etc/cron.hourly/0anacron - cron.hourly is still run by cron. If the script doesn't exist, then

I receive messages like this from cron often. Not every hour, and not consistently between the servers running CentOS, but at least two per day. Is this normal? /etc/cron.hourly/0yum-hourly.cron: Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infra=stock error was 14: HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden Could not retrieve mirrorlist

Hi, I just configured SquidAnalyzer, a nifty little network statistics tool that I'm using mainly in school networks to monitor network usage. I want to run the '/usr/bin/squid-analyzer' script once a day. I took a peek in /etc/cron.daily, and the package already installed an /etc/cron.daily/0squidanalyzer script. I wanted to know at what time CentOS ran the cron.daily scripts,

What is the ramifications to simply placing scripts in the /etc/cron.hourly directory as opposed to actually adding jobs via the crontab -e method? Is there any significance to using one method versus the other? Thanks! jlc

Is there a generic way that processes written to share files with (say) apache in /tmp can figure out that they are running on an OS with systemd and in that case, where the daemon in question thinks /tmp is? For example, twiki has a backup/restore add-in where the backup part is normally done from cron with a command line script but the resulting archives that go in /tmp are supposed to be seen

Ok, I've just had issues this morning, and went and *looked*. I can see a yum-cron running monthly, sure. Running weekly, I guess. Running daily? Why? And there is *NO* reason whatever for a "yum-hourly*. None. This is CentOS, not ubuntu-snapshot-of-the-moment. I don't know if this is from upstream or not, but it's wrong. I mean, even Redmond only pushes out patches once or

Hello there, I've just noticed that scripts in /etc/cron.{daily,weekly,...} are not launched for several weeks (I noticed a `locate` not finding a recently added binary). Exactly, it's since June 02, and `# service cron status` says: Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status crond.service * crond.service - Command Scheduler Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/crond.service; enabled;

hey centos long time no hear! :) I'm having a small issue where the backup jobs that I set to run in the crontab of the backup user do not appear to be running. Here's how I set it up (with crontab -e as the backup user): run amanda every night (check at 2:45 and backup at 3) 45 2 * * * /usr/sbin/amcheck /var/log/amanda/crontab/amcheck.log * 3 * * * /usr/sbin/amdump

Hi all, Who takes care of cronjob in /etc/cron.d ? Should we tell crond to run it? /etc/crontab only mentions hourly, daily, weekly, monthly -- Thanks Fajar

Hello, I have a challenge! I have a large dataset with three columns, "date","temp", "location". "date" is in the format %m/%d/%y %H:%M, with a "temp" recorded every 10 minutes. These temperatures of surface temperatures and so fluctuate during the day, heating up and then cooling down, so the data is a series of peaks and troughs. I would like
