Greetings/

I have a script listed in my roots crontab

07 9 * * * /opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT/HLRS_Scheduler_sp.sh > /opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT/logs/HLRTKJob.log

This script contains the following

#!/bin/bash
echo HLRSData Scheduler
cd /opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT
/usr/bin/java -Xms32m -Xmx1024m -cp ".:HLRSDATA_Premium.jar:lib/commons-net-1.4.1.jar:lib/jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar:lib/mysql-connector-java-3.1.12-bin.jar:lib/x
ercesImpl.jar" mx.com.txm.hlrsdata.scheduler.HLRS_Scheduler

/opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT/HLRS_Scheduler_Reports_sp.sh

/opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT/HLRS_Scheduler_Reports_Redundant_sp.sh
/opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT/HLRS_Delete_Data_sp.sh
/opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT/HLRS_Delete_Data_Redundant_sp.sh
/opt/HLRSDATA_2010_OCT/HLRS_Delete_Files.sh

The script is not running, I checked in /var/log/cron and theres not even a trace that it at least TRIED to run something.

Log:

Oct 18 08:47:19 isvahlrtk01 crontab[46449]: (root) END EDIT (root)
Oct 18 08:47:22 isvahlrtk01 crontab[46455]: (root) BEGIN EDIT (root)

Oct 18 09:00:18 isvahlrtk01 crontab[46548]: (root) LIST (root)
Oct 18 09:04:24 isvahlrtk01 crontab[46563]: (root) BEGIN EDIT (root)
Oct 18 09:04:37 isvahlrtk01 crontab[46563]: (root) REPLACE (root)
Oct 18 09:04:37 isvahlrtk01 crontab[46563]: (root) END EDIT (root)
Oct 18 09:07:46 isvahlrtk01 crontab[46578]: (root) LIST (root)

Theres a newline at the end of my crontab, theres no /etc/crontab.allow.

What could be preventing this to be executed?

Thanks in advance

This might be a long shot... but do you have SELinux enabled? Check with sestatus .

sestatus:

SELinux status:                 enabled
SELinuxfs mount:                /selinux
Current mode:                   enforcing
Mode from config file:          enforcing
Policy version:                 24
Policy from config file:        targeted

So it is enabled. If you don't need it, then disable it temporarily with setenforce 0 , then try running your cron job again.

Did it... changed the job for 9:59 and nothing, nothing in /var/log/cron

Maybe something in /var/spool/mail/root? Check:

tail -50 /var/spool/mail/root
7 
 tail: cannot open `/var/spool/mail/root' for reading: No such file or directory
