Hello,
1) In fc22, anacron (and crond) sent mail to root every time that it
was running. How can I recover this function with fc24 ?
2) Now, anacron and cron work. However, I have
in /etc/crontab
22 23 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
06 13 * * 6 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
and in /ect/anacrontab
1 5 cron.daily nice run-parts /etc/cron.daily
7 25 cron.weekly nice run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
@monthly 45 cron.monthly nice run-parts /etc/cron.monthly
But crond.weekly runs on the Monday while it must have run on Saturday !
Sep 19 10:01:01 teucidide anacron[4820]: Will run job `cron.weekly' in 54 min.
Sep 19 10:01:01 teucidide anacron[4820]: Jobs will be executed sequentially
Sep 19 10:35:01 teucidide anacron[4820]: Job `cron.daily' started
Sep 19 10:35:02 teucidide run-parts[6320]: (/etc/cron.daily) finished certwatch
Sep 19 10:35:03 teucidide run-parts[6327]: (/etc/cron.daily) finished logrotate
Sep 19 10:35:03 teucidide anacron[4820]: Job `cron.daily' terminated
Sep 19 10:55:01 teucidide anacron[4820]: Job `cron.weekly' started
3) systemctl | grep -i locate
provides not answer.
How can I check that mlocate run properly ?
There is not service locate or mlocate
Thank for your help.
