Hi All! After upgrading to 8.0 RELEASE, I'm not getting any emails from cron. If I put this into root's crontab * * * * * echo "TEST" then I see this in the maillog: May 14 10:53:00 server postfix/sendmail[2958]: fatal: user(1001): No recipient addresses found in message header I'm using postfix. Sendmail config looks fine: A /etc/mail/mailer.conf -ban ez van: # # Execute the Postfix sendmail program, named /usr/local/sbin/sendmail # sendmail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail send-mail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail mailq /usr/local/sbin/sendmail newaliases /usr/local/sbin/sendmail I tried to run "cron -x": # cron -x bit,ext,load,misc,pars,proc,sch > cron.log debug flags enabled: ext sch proc pars load misc bit [92380] cron started log_it: (tmp.27734 92380) ORPHAN (no passwd entry) log_it: (root 92429) CMD (echo "Test") ^C The cron.log file itself is very very long (there are many programs and user configs). I'll paste the relevant parts only: root:load_user() load_env, read <MAILTO=gandalf> load_env, <MAILTO> <gandalf> -> <MAILTO=gandalf> load_env, read <SHELL=/bin/sh> load_env, <SHELL> </bin/sh> -> <SHELL=/bin/sh> load_env, read <PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin> load_env, <PATH> </bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin> -> <PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin> load_env, read <* * * * * echo "Test"> load_env, parse error, state = 7 load_entry()...about to eat comments load_entry()...about to parse numerics load_entry()...about to parse command load_entry()...returning successfully ...load_user() done [done] At the end of the file: [2400] checking account with PAM [2401] grandchild process Vfork()'ed [2402] grandchild process Vfork()'ed [2403] grandchild process Vfork()'ed [2404] grandchild process Vfork()'ed [2405] grandchild process Vfork()'ed [2395] child continues, closing pipes [2395] child reading output from grandchild [2406] grandchild process Vfork()'ed [2396] child continues, closing pipes [2396] child reading output from grandchild [2397] child continues, closing pipes [2397] child reading output from grandchild [2398] child continues, closing pipes [2398] child reading output from grandchild [2399] child continues, closing pipes [2399] child reading output from grandchild [2400] child continues, closing pipes [2400] child reading output from grandchild [2395] closing pipe to mail [2331] sigchld...pid #2395 died, stat=0 [2331] sigchld...no dead kids [2331] TargetTime=1275040320, sec-to-wait=60 [2331] sleeping for 60 seconds [2399] got EOF from grandchild [2399] waiting for grandchild #2 to finish [2399] grandchild #2404 finished, status=0000 [2399] waiting for grandchild #1 to finish [2399] no more grandchildren--mail written?
