CRON WOL

[Wayne Workman]

Running r7180 currently, on Fedora 21 fully updated.

@Tom-Elliott is already aware of this issue, but I thought it deserved a more formal report.

When scheduling a CRON WOL event for a group for monday through friday, I used for DOW this: 1,2,3,4,5 which apparently broke the scheduling mechanism. However 1-5 seems to work. Some patches have been made to attempt to support the 1,2,3,4,5 format but the task didn’t execute right this morning.

I have 4 computer labs all scheduled to wake up Monday through Friday at 7:30 AM.

Here are this morning’s logs:

Pretty sure this is working now, but could use confirmation.

Any Info?

It was working for a little while and then recently stopped again. I have been monitoring this thread: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7271/scheduled-cron-tasks-don-t-start/17
