I upgraded from 6.12.8 to 6.12.9 early this morning before going to bed; after setup finished, I was able to log in and the array and all my dockers/VMs seemed to be running just fine. However, when I got up later this morning, Unraid had been sending and is still sending an email every hour indicating a cron issue:

 

 

I've looked at the scheduled cronjobs in the console, I've looked at the syslog, but I'm not seeing anything obvious; any ideas?

Yes, I use the User Scripts plugin; I just ran chmod on the /etc/cron.hourly folder and this is what I see in WinSCP:

 

 

If I go into that folder, these are the permissions there:

 

 

Likewise, these are the other cron folders:

you do seem to have weird permission set. Make sure all your plugins are up to date as well. Have you tried a reboot?

 

Here is the output of my system's cron permission.

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root      60 Apr  1 14:56 cron.d/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root      80 Apr  1 14:32 cron.daily/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root      60 Apr  1 14:32 cron.hourly/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root      60 Apr  1 14:32 cron.monthly/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root      60 Apr  1 14:32 cron.weekly/

 

inside cron/houly
root@BMM-Unraid:/etc/cron.hourly# ls -l
total 4
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 77 Apr  1 14:32 user.script.start.hourly.sh*

terminal cd /etc

ls -l to get print out.

 

I would recommend a reboot check permissions and if permission are still obscured then ch mod and ch own to fix

chown root:root /etc/cron.d

chown root:root /etc/cron.daily

chown root:root /etc/cron.hourly

chown root:root /etc/monthly

chown root:root /etc/cron.weekly

 

chmod -R 755 /etc/cron.d

chmod -R 755  /etc/cron.daily

chmod -R 755  /etc/cron.hourly

chmod -R 755  /etc/monthly

chmod -R 755  /etc/cron.weekly

 

Haven't checked the above yet, but Disk Location's cronjob to update SMART data displayed is apparently the culprit; I had it set for hourly, but, when I changed its interval to daily, the hourly error emails changed to once a day. I tried uninstalling the plugin and reinstalling it, but all of my settings survived and the error emails still happen.

I would have you ask on the forum. if you want the hourly option.

Yeah, I saw that... the error was on one of my nvme ssds and went away when I swapped it out.
