Anyway, the gist of my original response was that I couldn't locate the problem with the given information. Your permissions are different than mine but altering my installation to match closer with your permissions didn't keep me from starting cron. So my best recommendation, if your not inclined to jump into source and try to debug the problem there, is to try wiping out your installation and starting over. It will be less satisfying in terms of finding the source of the problem but is, perhaps, the quicker approach to a working cron. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
