Bug in centos 6 cron job

[MBlagui]

https://github.com/sentora/sentora-core/blob/master/etc/build/config_packs/centos_6/cron/zdaemon

This is buggy as you can see calls php55 that's wrong and to avoid any issue better we call cron

php /etc/zpanel/panel/bin/daemon.php to avoid any issues.

CRON IS NOT RUNNING as the patch in cron job is WRONG. Run it manually ( disable the output redirection and enjoy the FILE NOT FOUND).

Old zdaemon used before:

SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=root HOME=/ /5 * * * \ root nice -2 /usr/bin/php -q /etc/zpanel/panel/bin/daemon.php >> /dev/null 2>&1

see the path and the current one used with centos 6 & later centos 7

SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/opt/rh/php55/root/usr/bin:/opt/rh/php55/root/usr/sbin MAILTO=root HOME=/ MANPATH=/opt/rh/php55/root/usr/share/man:${MANPATH} /5 * * * \ root nice -2 /opt/rh/php55/root/usr/bin/php -q /etc/zpanel/panel/bin/daemon.php >> /dev/null 2>&1

the path is wrong here and won't work. After install cron will not run.

The bug continue on centos 7 but i cant seam to find the cron.d/ on centos 7 x64

[Caffe1neAdd1ct]

use the crontab -u root -e command to access and edit

[iTpain]

i get

no crontab for root - using a empty one

[Caffe1neAdd1ct]

Try running:

sudo crontab -l -u apache> /tmp/mycron; echo "*/5 * * * * nice -2 php -q /etc/zpanel/panel/bin/daemon.php >> /etc/zpanel/daemon_last_run.log 2>&1" >> /tmp/mycron; sudo crontab -u apache /tmp/mycron; sudo rm -f /tmp/mycron

[iTpain]

i try it the solutions

sudo crontab -l -u apache> /tmp/mycron; echo "/5 * * * \ nice -2 php -q /etc/zpanel/panel/bin/daemon.php >> /etc/zpanel/daemon_last_run.log 2>&1" >> /tmp/mycron; sudo crontab -u apache /tmp/mycron; sudo rm -f /tmp/mycron

i get

no crontab for apache

After i run the latest comand and i rebot my vps i can't get apache to work anymore

yum install cronie Before the command. we are adding this package to installer

New install on CentOS 6.5 today, confirming this bug is still present.

[MBlagui]

thanks to confirm the installer you used @thejae because we are working on new installer/config pack if you want to beta test you are welcome to PM me in the forums Me.B.

[thejae]

@MBlagui I used the instruction posted here http://docs.sentora.org/ which is bash <(curl -LSs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sentora/sentora-installers/master/sentora_install_centos.sh)

Seems like I managed to fix the problem at the moment. Here is what I did:

     # crontab -e
     */5 * * * * root /usr/bin/php -q /etc/zpanel/panel/bin/daemon.php >> /dev/null 2>&1

Thanks for the offer, i'll PM you on the forums.
