anacron keeps on stopping after restart. where do i check for problems re this service? i can't figure it out in /var/log/messages.

[root@go ~]# /etc/init.d/anacron start
Starting anacron: [ OK ]
[root@go ~]# /etc/init.d/anacron status
anacron is stopped
[root@go ~]#


adit/add'l:

is it anacron or crond should be running? i have a fresh install v2.0 and noticed that anacron and crond are both running. in my live dialer, crond is running while anacron doesn't start (sort off as shown above)

[root@go ~]# /etc/init.d/crond status
crond (pid 3284) is running...
[root@go ~]# /etc/init.d/anacron status
anacron (pid 3297) is running...
[root@go ~]#


im also not sure if this is related to goadmin page. asterisk, mysql, and apache services show "x" icon but when i checked the status all are started

did you just get bored and decide to check this or are you experiencing some sort of failure?

i experience time sync error in agent's screen. so i checked 2 things: services and date/time.

in goadmin page, services shows "x" icon which means not running. then i tried /etc/init.d/<service> status. asterisk, mysql, apache are all running. until now im still experiencing this.

then i remember a thread re time sync error which involves cron. so i checked it and found no entries at all. that is why i created a thread asking for the default entries in goautodial. you pointed me to ubuntu page and tried it. that fixed the issue.

yesterday i installed goauto in vm and copied the original cron entries. after that the services in goadmin still shows "not running".
