Dear all,
I have a cron job that plays music in the mornings
when I get to work.
Mplayer plays from a custom playlist of songs. It
turns on at 7:06 am and stops playing at 8:25 5
minutes before the bell. For the past two or three
days, the music has stopped playing :(
Here's what is in crontab and the corresponding
versions of *cron*
[olivares at localhost ~]$ crontab -l
# min hr mon dom dow command
06 7 * * 1-5 ~/alarm >& /dev/null
25 8 * * 1-5 killall -9
/usr/local/bin/mplayer >& /dev/null
05 19 * * 1-5 ~/alarm2 >& /dev/null
[olivares at localhost ~]$ rpm -qa crontab*
crontabs-1.10-19.fc9.noarch
[olivares at localhost ~]$ rpm -qa *cron*
crontabs-1.10-19.fc9.noarch
cronie-1.0-3.fc9.i386
anacron-2.3-57.fc9.i386
[olivares at localhost ~]$
If there would be a bug to be filed, against which one
should I file against so that I can get my cron jobs
working again?
Thanks,
Antonio
