Re: [cobalt-users] New RaQ3 Updates Break Log Rotate and Stats

["Roger Dunk" <roger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yup, same here. As you eluded to, it's obviously the cron update.
A check of /var/log/cron indicated that the cron daemon hadn't been running
ever since I performed the update (despite having rebooted the machine after
running the update). I've manually started cron via '/etc/rc.d/init.d/cron
start' and it appears to be working. Why it didn't start itself I haven't
investigated yet and frankly can't be bothered right now. But fair dinkum,
you'd reckon the least Cobalt could do is actually test these damn patches!

Cheers...
Roger
