cronjob corrupted

dear all ,

i was trying to run a cron as root , something happened because it displayed

 
"/tmp/crontabC5a4lB" 14 lines, 495 characters
cron may not be running - call your system administrator
 

does anyone knows the problems?

thanks

sorry also i am using slorais 10 not solraisd 9 , i have seen a post put earier here but it was on solaris 9 not solaris 10 , something available ???

Probably, the cron daemon has stopped.

check with,

 ps -ef | grep cron

If not found, you need to start that first.

i've forgotten to start it thanks a lot anchal Khare
