Description of problem: after an upgrade from cfme-5.5.0 to cfme-5.5.2, an ntp_update cronjob fails and writes errors to /var/spool/mail/root this appears to be caused by the removal of the folder /var/www/miq/lib/util/ntp as it no longer exists on 5.5.2, but does exist on 5.5.0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cfme-5.5.2.4-1.el7cf.x86_64 How reproducible: very Steps to Reproduce: 1. setup new cfme-5.5.0 appliance 2. register the system with RHSM through the webGUI 2. upgrade to cfme-5.5.2 Actual results: lots of errors in /var/spool/mail/root: Expected results: successful upgrade, no cron errors
If you remove the following two lines from root's crontab it will resolve this issue perminantly: */15 * * * * /var/www/miq/lib/util/ntp/run_ntpdate @reboot /var/www/miq/lib/util/ntp/run_ntpdate
Nick, can you investigate? Is this already fixed?
Ah I think when we removed this here (https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq/pull/5705) we didn't account for existing entries in the crontab files. We could doc that when upgrading these need to be removed. Any other ideas Joe?
Also `crontab -l | grep -v "run_ntpdate" | crontab` should do the job We will look into getting this into the upgrade spec file.
So, I verified and relationships are really unified in both services and clouds, but this BZ describes, that everything should be unified, so I don't know whether to make it verified or wait until all will be unified...
Sorry, wrong BZ.
Verified in:5.6.0.7-beta2.6.20160516171555_b1be31f I updated 5.5.0 to 5.6.0.7 and there is no entry in crontab for running script, that is missing.(There is no entry at all.)
