Subject: cron results in COLD BOOT
Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2001 09:56:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <08E2C05AC33DD4119DD6009027D3B3E9017DBB06@il50scp01.micro.honeywell.com> (raw)
Greetings All,
I have to COLD BOOT my NT workstation whenever cron executes by shell
script.
I've checked the FAQ, the user guides and the documentation and I've
searched the mail archive relentlessly. I've tried variations of the scripts
and configurations of cron with no luck. I hope I've satisfied the
expectation that try to figure this out on my own.
I am stumped.
I'm running CygWin on an NT 4.0 sp5 Intel workstation. I've installed the
cron service as follows:
cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron.exe -a -D -e "CYGWIN=tty ntsec"
The cron job is installed as follows:
30 10 * * * /home/kdsoukup/cadlib_admin/crontest/bart_nightly >>
/home/kdsoukup/cadlib_admin/crontest/bart_nightly.log
The cron service runs. Cron starts my script as desired. When I run the cron
command line on a bash command line, it executes everything great. When cron
attempts to start the same job, it gets through most of the script but locks
up just about everything up on my workstation. The command set never
completes and the only way out of it is to COLD BOOT the workstation. There
are a total of about 4 sh.exe processes running by the time I have to
reboot.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If you'd like to see the
script I'm executing (calls executables, cat, sed, awk, blah, blah, blah)
please reply directly and I'll provide it to you.
Thanks much and best regards,
