Hello. cron is running as a service. I have following entry in /var/cron/tabs/root 10 10 * * 1-5 /usr/bin/touch /tmp/cron_is_running But after the time expires there is no file /tmp/cron_is_running. The event log show me (in German) Die Beschreibung der Ereignis-ID ( 0 ) in Quelle ( /usr/sbin/cron ) konnte nicht gefunden werden. Sie enthält folgende Einfügezeichenkette(n):/usr/sbin/cron : Win32 Process Id = 0x174 : Cygwin Process Id = 0x1BB : (root) RELOAD (tabs/root).
