Hi Cygwin,
I tried to run a cron job as follows:
$ cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D -e
CYGWIN="tty ntsec"
$ cygrunsrv -S cron
The crons starts, I checked this by ps -ef. But, when
i tried to add a cronjob by
crontab -e
and type
40 10 * * * /home/admin/cron.sh
then it gave me this errors:
crontab:installin new crontab
crontab:error renaming tabs/tmp.000864 to tabs/admin
rename: Permission denied
I can not delete the error files in the var/cron/tabs
foler too even I logged on as admin. Any help ??
Thanks !
Ed.
