Hello,

I’m running Pydio 8.0.1 on RHEL 7 with PHP 7.0

The www-data user (owner of the /var/ww/html/pydio files) receives every minute the following error :

/bin/sh: NEW\_CRON: command not found

Any idea on how to solve this ?

Regards,  
Niels

Hi,

Do you have any cron task for php/pydio ? Just look for it in /etc/cron\* (all files in this location)

I found this

cat /var/spool/cron/www-data

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

- 
  - 
    - 
      - 
        - NEW\_CRON

I guess Pydio is unable to create entries in there ?

In order to run jobs from the scheduler do I need to have this in /etc/crontab ?

\*/5 \* \* \* \* /usr/local/bin/php /var/www/html/pydio/cmd.php -r=ajxp\_conf -u=admin -p= -a=scheduler\_runAll \>\> /var/www/pydio/data/cache/cmd\_outputs/cron\_commands.log

This gives the following error in the crontab :

Nov 8 16:35:01 [localhost] crond[1213]: (/usr/local/bin/php) ERROR (getpwnam() failed)

\*/5 \* \* \* \* /usr/local/bin/php /var/www/html/pydio/cmd.php -r=ajxp\_conf -u=admin -p= -a=scheduler\_runAll \>\> /var/www/pydio/data/cache/cmd\_outputs/cron\_commands.log

Yes but it requires to specify username

`*/5 * * * * www-data /usr/local/bin/php /var/www/html/pydio/cmd.php -r=ajxp_conf -u=admin -p= -a=scheduler_runAll >> /var/www/pydio/data/cache/cmd_outputs/cron_commands.log`

And try to emty /var/spool/cron/www-data
