My administrator has been trying to get the cron service to run on our cygwin 1.7 environments. After installing the various packages, he performed the permission changes on my machine on /etc/passwd, /etc/group, /var, /var/cron, /var/cron/tab. When cron-config runs, he sees: $ cron-config Cron is already installed as a service under account CAS\Olentangy. Do you want to remove or reinstall it? (yes/no) no Running cron_diagnose ... ... no problem found. Do you want to start the cron daemon as a service now? (yes/no) yes cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService: Win32 error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure. In case of problem, examine the log file for cron, /var/log/cron.log, and the Windows event log (using /usr/bin/cronevents) for information about the problem cron is having. Examine also any cron.log file in the HOME directory (or the file specified in MAILTO) and cron related files in /tmp. If you cannot fix the problem, then report it to cygwin@cygwin.com. Please run the script /usr/bin/cronbug and ATTACH its output (the file cronbug.txt) to your e-mail. WARNING: PATH may be set differently under cron than in interactive shells. Names such as "find" and "date" may refer to Windows programs. We looked for /var/log/cron.log, looked through the output of /usr/bin/cronevents, looked in the HOME directory, and looked in /tmp, but didn't find anything in the directories, and cronevents only lists the editing of crontab files. Then, he ran $ cygrunsrv.exe -S cron cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService: Win32 error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure. (He is logged in as ntsa13; I am logged in as lwv27). Next, per the instructions, I ran cronbug. This gave me a file, which I'm attaching, and the following error was output to stderr rather than into the file. /cygdrive/c/products/cygwin_1.7/bin/cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for 'TapiSrv': Win32 error 5 Access is denied. I've checked the events viewer on this machine, and the only crontab related events are the ones mentioned in the cronevents output, which are, as I mentioned, the BEGIN EDIT, REPLACE, END EDIT, LIST messages. We are not certain what the next step should be. -- Tcl - It's the real thing. http://wiki.tcl.tk/ http://www.purl.org/NET/lvirden/ http://www.xanga.com/lvirden/ Anything in this posting represents only my personal opinion.
