Duplicate cron entries - FeG - 01-01-2009 08:12 PM
Hi all...
I'm using ispCP since RC2 and have updated it constantly with every RC, so I'm now at RC7...
Coincidentally I've seen that there are duplicate entries for some cron jobs:
/etc/cron.d/ispcp
Code:
# delayed tasks START.
# Quota
@daily root /var/www/ispcp/engine/quota/ispcp-dsk-quota &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-dsk-quota.log
# Traffic
0,30 * * * * root /var/www/ispcp/engine/traffic/ispcp-srv-traff &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-srv-traff.log
0,30 * * * * root /var/www/ispcp/engine/traffic/ispcp-vrl-traff &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-vrl-traff.log
15,45 * * * * root /var/www/ispcp/engine/traffic/ispcp-vrl-traff-correction &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-vrl-traff-correction.log
# customer logs
@daily root /var/www/ispcp/engine/tools/ispcp-httpd-logs-mngr &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-httpd-logs-mngr.log
# Backup
@daily root /var/www/ispcp/engine/backup/ispcp-backup-all yes &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-all-mngr.log
@daily root /var/www/ispcp/engine/backup/ispcp-backup-ispcp noreport &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-ispcp-mngr.log
...crontab -l
Code:
# Quota
0 23 * * * /var/www/ispcp/engine/quota/ispcp-dsk-quota &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-qsk-quota.log
# Traffic
0,30 * * * * /var/www/ispcp/engine/traffic/ispcp-srv-traff &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-srv-traff.log
0,30 * * * * /var/www/ispcp/engine/traffic/ispcp-vrl-traff &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-vrl-traff.log
15,45 * * * * /var/www/ispcp/engine/traffic/ispcp-vrl-traff-correction &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-vrl-traff-correction.log
30 23 * * * /var/www/ispcp/engine/tools/ispcp-httpd-logs-mngr &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-httpd-logs-mngr.log
# Backup
0 1 * * * /var/www/ispcp/engine/backup/ispcp-backup-all yes &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-all-mngr.log
# AWStats
15 */6 * * * /var/www/ispcp/engine/awstats/awstats_updateall.pl now -awstatsprog=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl >/dev/null 2>&1
...I guess that the entries in root's crontab were done by one of the first ispCP versions and not deleted by later updates. Am I right?
I've also a file /etc/cron.d/ispcp.phptemp which does the same as this line in /etc/cron.d/ispcp:
Code:
0,30 * * * * root /var/www/ispcp/engine/tools/ispcpphptemp.sh >/dev/null 2>&1Can someone confirm this?
Greetings

/etc/cron.d/ispcp is correct cron file. You can clear/remove rest of it

@sci2tech: does this mean something went wrong somewhere in the update scripts from RC2 -> RC7?
Maybe we should wipe out cron (with a warning to user) in the next update to v1.0.0 to ensure older testers don't have any such bugs?

this is not a critical bug since I haven't even noticed it before I looked into /etc/cron.d/ .
I don't think wiping cron is a good idea - I have some backup entries in there and would be very angry if an ispCP installation would delete them ...
Of course one could look for the ispCP-Section in crontab and remove it when calling ispcp-update, but since it only affects these users who are updating since RC2 a post in the forum should be enough..
