Description of problem: The scripts in /etc/cron.daily don't get run. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): crontabs-1.10-15.fc7 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Let cron launch run-parts to run /etc/cron.daily Actual results: Nothing happens Expected results: The scripts in /etc/cron.daily get run Additional info: This started happening when crontabs-1.10-15.fc7 was installed as an update by yum about August 29. I think the test at the beginning of /usr/bin/run-parts is backwards: [root@3439-3 bin]# diff -c run-part.orig run-parts *** run-part.orig 2007-08-27 01:59:50.000000000 -0500 --- run-parts 2007-09-04 12:37:40.000000000 -0500 *************** *** 2,8 **** # if cron.daily was run today AUX1=`cat /var/spool/anacron/cron.daily` AUX2=`date +%Y%m%d` ! [ "$AUX1" == $AUX2 ] || exit 0 # run-parts - concept taken from Debian --- 2,8 ---- # if cron.daily was run today AUX1=`cat /var/spool/anacron/cron.daily` AUX2=`date +%Y%m%d` ! [ "$AUX1" == $AUX2 ] && exit 0 # run-parts - concept taken from Debian
