For me, on a clean windows install, both soft and hardcron work from source (tried with 1.59). I can confirm hardcron NOT working when run from binary, though. I will have to compile myself to get to the bottom of that. It's even more concerning that Icebergs self-compiled version does not work the same way a, so there is something definitely amis in the compilation.
Linux definitely works, all crom modes, I have it in production in all three modes. Had no Mac reports so don't know about those. Windows folks, do you use cron ? Speak up ! What version, what python, binary/source ? Does it work for you ? On Apr 16, 2:00 pm, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > We really need to get to the bottom of this. Achipa.
