Hi,
I have the cron installed, my crontab is in attacged file crontab-l
but nothing is going on.
the attached files is generated by
$ crontab -l > crontab-l.txt
$ cron_diagnose.sh > crontab_dia.txt
$ cygcheck -srv > cygcheck.txt
thanks...

cron_diagnose.sh 1.10
This script did not find any errors in your cron setup.
If you are still unable to get cron to work, then try
shutting down the cron service, uninstalling it,
reinstalling it, and restarting it.
The following commands will do that:
$ cygrunsrv --stop cron
$ cygrunsrv --remove cron
$ cygrunsrv --install cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D
(You can also add a -u switch)
$ cygrunsrv --start cron
If the cron service does not start, try deleting the file
/var/run/cron.pid and then repeating the commands above.
Also, examine the log file for cron, /var/log/cron.log, for
information that it might give you about the problem cron is
having.
If none of this fixes the problem, then report your problem
to cygwin@cygwin.com. Please include a copy of your crontab,
('crontab -l') and the output of 'cygcheck -srv > cygcheck.txt'.
Please include the generated file 'cygcheck.txt' *as an attachment*,
and NOT in the body of the mail message.

I'll quote your crontab inline to better comment on it:
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/tmp/crontab.580 installed on Fri Oct 7 14:09:56 2005)
# (Cron version -- $Id: crontab.c,v 1.8 2004/12/21 16:14:41 corinna Exp $)
10 14 * * * /bin/date >> /usr/tmp/date.out;
First off, I'm not sure how cron will react to the semicolon at the end.
Secondly, you need to redirect stderr as well as stdout, or deal with cron
trying to mail you the output.
Try
10 14 * * * /bin/date >> /usr/tmp/date.out 2>&1
and see if that works for you (it should). If not, take a look at
/var/log/cron.log and the Windows Event Log for any relevant messages from
cron.
HTH,
Igor

Hi Igor,
thanks for your quicky reply!
I tryed in this way
$ crontab -l
10 14 * * * /bin/date >> /usr/tmp/date.out 2>&1
but doesn't work!!
In attch. files is generated from:
$ cat /var/log/cron.log > cron.log.txt
$ ps -elf > ps-elf.txt
I've also changed the permission of my cron.pid
$ chown a+x /var/run/cron.pid
$ ls -l /var/run/cron.pid
In event.log the Windows Event Log output.. IMHO is generated from
$ crontab -l
Thanks
Orfeo

What is your indication that it doesn't work? Do you have anything in
/usr/tmp/date.out? What are the permissions on that file?

This shows that cygrunsrv is running as user "micekiller". It should be
running as SYSTEM. What exact command did you use to install your cron
service?

Your eventlog.txt shows only one event:
crontab : PID 1628 : (micekiller) LIST (micekiller).
This is indeed from "crontab -l". Are you sure there are no more
cron-generated events there?

Your crontab job will run every minute starting at 18:00.
Keep waiting ;-) read a book... read the manual.

Nope. You aren't really "SYSTEM", your SID (that string starting with S-)
is still that for U-SN2307128\micekiller. Cygwin thinks your name is
SYSTEM, but it isn't.
Besides, you don't need to do that. cygrunsrv will install services as
SYSTEM by default, regardless of the current user.

Try doing this without changing your UID to 18. In fact, is there a
reason why you didn't use cron-config in the first place? Why not try
removing all traces of the cron service, including the log and pid files,
and using cron-config to install cron?

well, I removed all my cron intallation:
$ cygrunsrv --stop cron
$ cygrunsrv --remove cron
$ rm -f /var/run/cron.pid
$ rm -f /var/log/cron*
$ cygrunsrv -L
(empty row)
then I restarted cygwin and:
$ /usr/bin/cron-config
...as service? yes
...yourself? no
...ntsec? yes
...start ..service? yes
now:
$ cygrunsrv -L
cron
$ cygrunsrv -Q cron
Service : cron

I don't see the step where you ran "crontab -e" to actually edit the
crontab. How are you doing this? If you are just editing the file with
an editor and not using "crontab -e" then that is the reason it is not
working. You can't just edit the crontab. At the least you need to HUP
the daemon.

We can't tell you where you are wrong until you tell us what you mean by
cron "not working"... Does the crontab fail to execute correctly (i.e.,
every minute after 10:00?
I think, besides fixing the above typo, reading "man 5 crontab" would be
helpful.

first I'm sorry for my poor English...
in order to explain you what I mean when I wrote "cron does't work",
I try with the same command in my linux box (debian sid)
$ uname
Linux
$ export VISUAL=zile
$ crontab -e
...edit the file..
$ crontab -l

$ cat tmp/date.out

for me, in this example, cron "works", i.e. in ~/tmp directory I found
the file date.out. In cygwin, with the same crontab, the ~/tmp dir is
empty.

Well, I read the man, the README in Paul Vixie source code, and
cron.README but I didn't find where it's teh problem..

I see. Again, did you edit the crontab before 8:00, or after? If after,
did you wait a day?

It wasn't obvious that you really meant for cron to run your script every
minute starting at 10:00. Now it's clear that you understand what the
crontab is doing.
Since you're testing cron, I would suggest starting with
*/5 * * * * /bin/date >> /home/calox/tmp/date.out 2>&1
and waiting 5 minutes. If /home/calox/tmp is still empty, then we'll
debug further.
A few obvious questions: does /home/calox/tmp exist in Cygwin? What are
its permissions (do an "ls -ld")? Are you checking /home/calox/tmp or
~/tmp (IOW, is your $HOME set to /home/calox)? And, finally, do you have
SHELL set in the Windows environment, and if so, to what value?

In my linux box the my home is /home/calox, in Cygwin my home is
/home/micekiller, then the crontab is
$ crontab -l
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.

*/5 * * * * /bin/date >> /home/micekiller/tmp/date.out 2>&1
so, I waited for 10 min but ~/tmp (/home/micekiller/tmp) is empty.

$ ls -ld ~/tmp/

Here the group in None, it's OK? (in Linux is the usergroup)...maybe in

my $HOME is

Interesting... I thought the semantics were such that if the start time
is missed, the next day is used. I'll have to re-read the cron
documentation.

Is your user an administrative user? Is your home on a network share?
Try changing the above to
*/5 * * * * /bin/date >> /tmp/date.out 2>&1
Does /tmp/date.out get created?

It is possible, but the group shouldn't matter. Note that '+' at the end
of the permission string means that there are extra ACLs set for that
directory -- some of these may deny the necessary access.

That's ok -- bash sets SHELL if it's not set in the parent environment.

Aside from the fact that you seem to have run "set" from a bash shell,
whereas your prompt above is from a "cmd" shell, and that you use
"/cygdriver" instead of the standard "/cygdrive", the output looks fine.
FWIW, I just installed "cron" from scratch using /usr/bin/cron-config, put
*/5 * * * * /bin/date >> /tmp/date.out 2>&1
in my crontab, and sure enough, /tmp/date.out got created. Try that one
first, and if it works, you'll know that there is some issue with your
home directory that prevents cron from writing there.
BTW, what are the permissions on /home and /home/micekiller? They have
to have at least the execute bits set for /home/micekiller/tmp to be
accessible.
HTH,
Igor

To respond to my own problem: a "*" too much in the crontab could
explain a lot .....
So problem solved.

Hi,
I am trying to run a cron job on a Windows 2000 server. What I want is
to run a bash or sh shell script and mail the output to me on an other
machine.
Cron is running under the administrator account as a service.
For testing purposes I have a script that is in the home directory of
the administrator account and I want to run that every minute, sending
any output in a email to me.
I actually get an email every minute with the contents:
"/bin/sh: Mail: command not found"
I assume that I do not fully understand when to use what kind of paths
in my files (and cygwin is NOT in my system path because of name clashes
with other executables but is situated at d:\cygwin).
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
crontab.exe -l:
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/tmp/crontab.3424 installed on Fri Sep 29 08:38:58 2006)
# (Cron version -- $Id: crontab.c,v 1.8 2004/12/21 16:14:41 corinna Exp
$)
# (Use to post in the top of your crontab)
# ------------- minute (0 - 59)
# | ----------- hour (0 - 23)
# | | --------- day of month (1 - 31)
# | | | ------- month (1 - 12)
# | | | | ----- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0)
# | | | | |
# * * * * * command to be executed
MAILTO=jkr@askesis.nl
* * * * * * /bin/sh /home/Administrator/crontest
The script that should be run:
path in Cygwin: "/home/Administrator/crontest"
path in Windows: "d:\cygwin\home\Administrator\crontest"
#!/bin/sh
/bin/ls /
/bin/ls / > /home/Administrator/crontest.ls
#end of file
/bin/sh: Mail: command not found

Nevermind, that worked perfectly. The cron job ran and did what it
was designed to do, and sent me the only pleasant email I've gotten
so far today when it did so. :)
Would that all problems went away that easily.

Let's see what we have in this thread. About 13 k of mostly drivel,
along with something that seems to vaguely suggest that cron is using
the Windows path rather than the cygwin path, so I should put
Cygwin's bin directory on the Windows path before djgpp's.
Unfortunately, that would fix cron and break djgpp. Got any more
suggestions?
Meanwhile I'll try setting the PATH inside the crontab...
[copies PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:$PATH" from top line of
/etc/profile to top line of crontab and times job for ten minutes
from now]

But it didn't finish giving complete, detailed instructions. So it was all
in vain. It was a noble effort though, it should be honored for the

It didn't slip, exactly, as much as a bunch of us, on a lark, decided to
jump up and down on it repeatedly. We didn't notice the crack until the
thread had pretty much been completely smooshed into it.
In fact, we were jumping so hard that I'm not even sure that we didn't
create the actual crack ourselves.
Boy I hate those thread things just lying there all cocky saying "Look
at me! You lost a button! Now what are you going to do? I"m just a
piece of string! You can't hurt meeeeee!" I'll wipe the smile off
their thready little faces.
Anyway, sometimes me and the boys get a little carried away with
threads, if you know what I mean.
I took a look at this one though. Held it in my arms and tried to
apologize. It whispered to me, "Tell... Paul... to... set... his
system PATH via the Control Panel->System and then reboot... profile
files... not... read... by... ugh!"
Don't know if this makes sense or not but I've got to go stomp on
another thread right now. It's sneering to me about "directories
with spaces", of all things.

What with the big directory names debate and the big ctrl-V debate it
seems the cron problem thread has slipped through the cracks.
The last thing I discovered was that it seems to be invoking djgpp's
rm and mv and not Cygwin's. DJGPP is installed and in the Windows
PATH. However, the Cygwin PATH starts with
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin so to Cygwin programs Cygwin's rm should
be selected instead.
Indeed, "which rm" prints "/usr/bin/rm" from the Cygwin bash prompt.
Why, then, is cron using the wrong rm (and mv)?
AFAICT this really is the cause of the failure. It wgets the file but
fails to move it to the desktop because the DJGPP mv doesn't
understand cygdrive.
I imagine assigning PATH inside my crontab to prepend /usr/bin would
fix it. However this smells like a crock to me -- it'd treat the
symptoms but not whatever problem (cron misconfiguration?) is causing
them. I know it's not the ideal solution because if this were a
genuine multiuser system with multiple cygwin users set up, every one
of them would have to make the same edits in their crontabs, and
there just has to be a centralized way to do it instead.

Yep (ntsec;).
script1.pl:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
$cmd = "perl /path/script2.pl";
system $cmd;
1;
script2.pl:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
print "I'm script two.\n"
1;
crontab -e:
MAILTO=your@address.here
1 * * * * /usr/bin/perl /path/script1.pl
Put both scripts in /path no mounts are involved.
The mail from Cron:
Can't open perl script "/path/script2.pl": No such file or directory
It seems to be the problem that I didn't used an absolute path to perl
in script1.pl.
It works ok. if I change it to /usr/bin/perl.
It seems that Cron is running the wrong perl. I need to fix my path.
Thanks for your help,
Gerrit

spammer.pl is called by a perl script that is start by cron.
Why does one perl script don't find another one?
It is there:
$ ls -ln /TheBat/spammer.pl

I will now put all in one script, but I think this is weird.

I thought you could just inlude empty directories when you make the tar
ball.
This worked for me too.

I think you're right but don't forget that the permissions should
be set to 1777 on /var/cron and /var/cron/tabs.
Would you mind to help out and create an install script for
/etc/postinstall?

Thanks Michael,
I have read your post and I guess, I have started cron daemon first. I have
WinNT 4.0 SP6a and I was not able to delete the cron directory. I have tried
rm -rf cron and I have also tried deleteing the cron directory from WinNT
but I couldn't. It was saying that Access is denied or file is being used.
Then I asked my WinNT adminstrator to delete the cron directory and he was
able to do it with little efforts.
After delete cron directory, I first did crontab -e and put a dummy entry in
crontab * * * * * date > date.log
and then it worked.

this last week.
Unfortunately, I haven't seen any response from the maintainers--perhaps I
reported this to the wrong list...
Did you start the cron daemon (as some other user?) before creating a
crontab? If yes, then that other user (probably 'SYSTEM') owns /var/cron
and you don't have write access.
On Win2k, you can change the owner of that directory, and then add that
user and give that user full control over /var/cron and /var/cron/tabs.
Next time, make a crontab before starting the cron daemon.
What I think should really happen is that cron should create those
directories during installation so they are owned by whoever installed
cygwin.
Best of luck.

Thank you Corinna, however I have exactly the same problem as the original
poster. This is the error from event viewer after:
//root@W2KPICASSO $ cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D -e "CYGWIN=binmode tty ntsec"
//root@W2KPICASSO $ mkdir /home/system
//root@W2KPICASSO $ net start cron
The cron service is starting.
The cron service could not be started.
The service did not report an error.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( cron ) cannot be
found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. The following information is part of the event: cron : Win32
Process Id = 0xBC0 : Cygwin Process Id = 0xBC0 : starting service
`cron' failed: execv: 255, error 0.\0
I was missing the SYSTM from /etc/password, so Iadded the entry
by hand there and created /home/systemm as in your setup.
/var/cron/tabs/ is empty

`corinna' is an admin account, `dummy' is a standard user.
Cron works fine for both accounts, corinna as well as dummy.
I don't know what's your problem is. I can just suggest to debug
your installation.

I had the same CRON problem. Got struckup. I was about send this same
requets to cygwin.
As you wanted, here is the event log info that I captured from my
Windows 2000 system after setting up cygwin cron.
I noticed that following is the event type generated in event logs. The
time stamp of this event matches with the time, when I run 'crontab -e'
to edit the crontab entries with some vi or so, which is invoked by
'crontab -e', but not with the time stamp when the cron is supposed to
triggered in the crontab.
--- cut ---
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( crontab ) cannot be
found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. The following information is part of the event: crontab :
Win32 Process Id = 0x5AC : Cygwin Process Id = 0x41C : (Administrator)
LIST (Administrator).
--- cut ---
To know mnore about how to look into event log, here is the help window
contents from Win2000:
Notes: To open Event Viewer, click Start, point to Settings, and then
click Control Panel. Double-click Administrative Tools, and then
double-click Event Viewer.
Look for Application Events, as I could not find any relavant system
events that match our cron test time stamps.
This event also happens when I setup crontab in any other way like what
is described in the previous email. No event log is reported, when the
cron is supposed to execute, cron job was not run at all. This cron
setup needs something to do with Windows Registry, since Windows has
come up with some fancy "Microsoft Scheduler" kind of thing, which our
cron should be able internally use it.
Any info on how to make this cron work, will be of great help to us all.

I installed cron with the command
$ cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D -e "CYGWIN=binmode tty ntsec" -e "MAILTO=rkoopmans@city

I install a crontab with the contents

The service starts, but nothing seems to happen. Can anyone help me?

Hi cygwin guru,
I couldn't get cron working under W2K.
I installed cron with cygrunsrv as NT service, started it but cron
jobs seems to be not working.
The Event viewer shows a couple of messages per every event:
"The decription for Event ID(0) in Source(Cygwin)could not be found.
It contains the following insertion string(s):(pcnet) CMD (echo "Hello
Sergey")
and:
"The decription for Event ID(0) in Source(Cygwin)could not be found.
It contains the following insertion string(s):(CRON) error (can't
switch user context)
Any clue to fix the problem?
