SOLVED the issue was in the system crontab,
@reboot python /home/www-data/web2py/web2py.py -S omniavx_joe -M -R applications/omniavx_joe /cron/init_db_tables.py 1 >> /tmp/cron_init_db_tables.output 2>&1 should be instead @reboot python /home/www-data/web2py/web2py.py -S omniavx_joe -M -R applications/omniavx_joe/cron/init_db_tables.py 1 >> /tmp/cron_init_db_tables.output 2>&1 (typo: there should not be a space after omniavx_joe in the pathname) On Tuesday, June 30, 2015 at 6:10:16 AM UTC-5, Auden RovelleQuartz wrote: > > there is a system cron process "init_db_tables.py" (the script in the > web2py cron folder) that runs @reboot > > that process produces that error > > > > > On Tuesday, June 30, 2015 at 2:36:32 AM UTC-5, Massimo Di Pierro wrote: >> >> yes. it is supposed to be.
