DB Crontab Empty

[Rudolfmdlt]

Hi All,

Vicibox 4 install | SVN2020 | [DB + Web] + [Archive] + [Web] + 4[Dialer]s

Manual dial works but not auto dial. Did some investigation. All scripts seem to be running on the dialers. The DB had no screens? screen -r produced a "there are no screens to be resumed". When I run the hopper script manually the auto dialing works, but I have to keep running it manually.

crontab -l on the DB yeilds "no crontab for root"

Can some one please give me an example for the contrab of a DB only server? (And maybe help me debug this?)

Regards,

Rudolf

Hello,

the files with cron stuff that the installer installs is: dialcron, dbcron, allcron
located here: /usr/src/astguiclient/conf/

remember that any server can run the db cron jobs as long as it can connect to the database server.

take a look what the other servers crontab contain and make sure that nothing is missing or is duplicated when you add the dialcron, dbcron, allcron stuff

Hi DomeDan,

Thank you very much - I did double check and all is well now! Thank you very much! Just a question, I've never seen this when editing a crontab file:

Code: Select all

# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/tmp/crontab.AjCqZb installed on Thu Sep 12 14:09:50 2013)
# (Cronie version 4.2)
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/tmp/crontab.fElAui installed on Wed Aug  7 16:25:17 2013)
# (Cronie version 4.2)

Is there a specific way to edit the crontab file for a Vici cluster?

Regards,

Rudolf

good to hear!

I usually just run "crontab -e" and edit, try that instead of editing files
