Hi, We are seeing intermittent cron errors on some of our servers. We run about a couple of hundred jobs on these servers, and about 5% of them fail with the error "can't switch user context"). We enabled verbose logging, and in /var/log/cron.log see messages that say "cannot set uid for <user>". What is odd is that the same job, with the same user will run successfully 95% of the time. So it doesn't seem to be a permission issue or configuration issue.
Can anyone shed some light on where we should next for this? Output from cronbug is attached.
