Woops, should have said "crond" rather than "cronie" in my
instructions. Sorry about the typos. jik On 02/07/2008 08:37 PM, Antonio Olivares wrote: --- Jonathan Kamens <jik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Cronie RPM script bug.

Mplayer plays from a custom playlist of songs. It turns on at 7:06 am and stops playing at 8:25 5 minutes before the bell. For the past two or three days, the music has stopped playing :( Here's what is in crontab and the corresponding versions of *cron* [olivares@localhost ~]$ crontab -l # min hr mon dom dow command 06 7 * * 1-5 ~/alarm >& /dev/null 25 8 * * 1-5 killall -9 /usr/local/bin/mplayer >& /dev/null 05 19 * * 1-5 ~/alarm2 >& /dev/null [olivares@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa crontab* crontabs-1.10-19.fc9.noarch [olivares@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa *cron* crontabs-1.10-19.fc9.noarch cronie-1.0-3.fc9.i386 anacron-2.3-57.fc9.i386 [olivares@localhost ~]$ If there would be a bug to be filed, against which one should I file against so that I can get my cron jobs working again?
