Can anyone tell me where this message is coming from and what it means? It appears every night at 20:05.
It's generated in the "-*/15 * * * * root test -x /usr/lib/cron/run-crons && /usr/lib/cron/run-crons >/dev/null 2>&1" which is automatically installed in crontab but I can't trace though to find its source.
You should only get those emails in case of errors. The file "/usr/lib/cron/run-crons" is the script responsible for this. Configuration file is "/etc/sysconfig/cron". Notice that if MAILTO is left undefined, it is sent to root instead. Have a look at the "/etc/cron.daily/" directory. My guess is that you will find there a file named "postgresql-52896-" that is not executable and is thus firing the message you see, ie, file being skipped from the daily run-cron tasks. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
