There have been a couple posts to this list from people who couldn't get cron's @reboot to work. I found the following problems:
1) the crondance function has an argument for "startup", setting it to True tells it to run the @reboot tasks. However, crondance is never called with startup=True, so reboot tasks never run. Where should this be called? In widget.py? 2) the `task' variable on line 307 sometimes doesn't have a 'min' field and throws an error. 3) when starting up, I presume we only want to run @reboot tasks. I fixed 2) and 3) with this patch to cron.py: - if startup and task['min'] == -1: - go = True + if startup: + # On startup, only look for the reboot task + go = 'min' in task and -1 in task['min'] Ideas for how to fix 1? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
