Hello,

Every time i add or edit one cron task in VESTA action is saved but return always ERROR CODE 1.

I can see cron work successful but the error alert is annoying.

My server is ubuntu 18.04 and VestaCP is up to date ( Version:0.9.8 (amd64) Release:25) .

How i can debug this problem ?

What I'd do is look in the vesta system log to find out the actual command that is run.
tail /var/log/vesta/system.log

Code: Select all

v-add-cron-job  'admin' '30' '11' 'autoupdate index.php reports' 'autoupdate index.php reports' 'autoupdate index.php reports' '/home/admin/scripts/null.sh'
That was one I added to my system and it looks a bit weird to me! Not sure what "autoupdate index.php reports" is doing in a field which is meant to contain a number!
Usage: v-add-cron-job USER MIN HOUR DAY MONTH WDAY COMMAND [JOB] [RESTART]

Anyway, so then I'd run that again manually from the command prompt to see if it gives me any more clues what the error was. In fact I'd use the correct format:

Code: Select all

v-add-cron-job  'admin' '30' '11' '*' '*' '*' '/home/admin/scripts/null.sh'
If there's no further information, I'd try running it with bash debug (warning ... a lot of output)

Code: Select all

bash -x $VESTA/bin/v-add-cron-job  'admin' '30' '11' '*' '*' '*' '/home/admin/scripts/null.sh'
These are things I'd try on my own system. Use at your own risk!
