cron miss-fire

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings;

I didn't get any mail from amanda this morning, and no record in the log 
of the script having been run at 1:01 this morning.  So I called up 
kcron, highlighted the command line, pulled down the edit menu and told 
it to run it.  It appears to be running as expected although the shell 
where I launched kcron reported the root catcher exit of the first call 
in that script, a call to amcheck.

This should not be, and should be bugzilla'd against kcron because it did 
not become amanda before launching the script, and parts of amanda that 
the script calls will fail because of that.  Which bugzilla do I use?

But the real question is: Why didn't it run it at the set time this 
morning?

Cheers, Gene
