New cron.d entry not working

[gbr]

Hi,

I created a file called cluster.cron in /etc/pve. Because of where it's placed, the file is duplicated to all servers in my cluster.

I then create a link in /etc/cron.d on all my servers to the file in /etc/pve. Just like the vzdump.cron file is done.

In my cluster.cron, I put:

* * * * * root date >> /tmp/date

basically every minute, put the date into a file.

The cron never gets executed. Any ideas what is going on?

Is the file executable?

Yup, did /etc/init.d/cron restart.

my cron file has the exact same permissions at vzdump.cron
