I was looking through the mail archives for help with this, and found
a post by Jari Aalto describing my problem, but I didn't see the resolution.
The error that I get is:
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062:
The service has not been started.
The error from "cron.exe" when run on the command line is:
seteuid: Not owner
Corinna Vinschen responded with:
>> Sure. cron needs privileges only given to SYSTEM by default.
So my question is: What do I do to give cron these privileges? Starting
cron as Administrator doesn't do it, and according to the README, cron
is supposed to run as SYSTEM by default. What do I need to do to make
this work for me?
By the way, the command I'm using to create the service is as follows:
cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D -e "CYGWIN=tty ntsec"
Thanks for your help, and thanks for Cygwin!
