Hey !

I just completed a task and , it is counted as failed telling me no crontab was setup on stapp01.
But i have created one for the root user ?
Is the problem that i have used a template for it that wasnt expected by the parser for the answer or anything else that I can’t see ?
Thanks.

Hi @hdbhandari

As per screenshot the error is about crond service not about the cron itself. Seems like you missed to start crond service.

Thanks

Hi Inderpreet!

I had started the crond after installing the cronie on the app server , like below:

/etc/init.d>sudo crond start

But still I failed to start the crond.
Could you please tell me the reason…

Hi @Sameera

Not sure if its a typo or mistake, but the command should be sudo service crond start.

@Inderpreet
Ah I suppose I missed the “service” part of the command hence the crowd did not start.
Thank you!!
