    Hello everyone. my only issue is the isp config backups are not running. the entries are listed in cron for root but never get executed. if i take the line and paste it itno a shell command it will run. This is the only entry that does not run. here is what is listed. does it look right?

    Please run
    Code:
    crontab -e
    and save the cron jobs again. Maybe it helps.

    Is this a 32 or 64Bit Linux?

    similar problem

    I want to know that i have the same problem here.

    On my backup-server, as user rdiff-backup i give the command:
    /usr/bin/rdiff-backup --exclude /tmp --exclude /mnt --exclude /proc --exclude /dev --exclude /cdrom --exclude /var/lib/named/dev server1_backup::/ /backup/server1 (1line!)

    which works great!

    However my cronjob for rdiff-backup with the contents:
    40 2 * * * /usr/bin/rdiff-backup --exclude /tmp --exclude /mnt --exclude /proc --exclude /dev --exclude /cdrom --exclude /var/lib/named/dev server1_backup::/ /backup/server1 (1 line)

    Is never executed.

    I tried to save the cronjob again, as Falko suggested.
    It did not work out for me.
    I also tried:
    /etc/init.d/cron stop
    Make sure all cron processer are stopped
    "killall -9 cron"
    then
    Run "crontab -e"
    save the cron file and then run /etc/init.d/cron start

    No results too...
    I guess my cron is a little lazy! :D

    If anyone knows an answer, it would be nice!
    Note: the backup server: Debian Sarge 386, server1 = Debian unofficial Sarge 64 bit.
