I've been using "cron" for more that a few weeks without any problems,
until my needs changed. I installed cron as a service using
"cygrunsrv". I keep getting errors about creating lockfile. I removed
the lockfile but it got created again. At first, I got the Win32 error
and ran the cron_diagnose.sh script and got it further along but still
nogo. Attached is a copy of "cronbug.txt" as instructed. It is trying
to start cron, but cron fails to start as a service. It run perfectly
when not a service/
One difference: the service control manager added a "-n" option to my
cron command that I did not specify. How can I turn off this feature??
