Weird crontab free agent

Post by hbilke »

Howdy fellas,

within the "root" crontab of my laptop at home (free agent installed) there are two entries obviously active - two different starting times w/different --id {.......}

I assume that one of them is a "left over" from a different jobconfig I deleted/changed targetting another share with a different password.

Is this a bug or a feature leaving older entries in the crontab?

The agent is working - just wanted to know whether I could / should "tidy up".

Hi,

If you delete the job or update its schedule then crontab is supposed to be modified automatically, i.e. normally old entries should not stay active. That is, the described behaviour seems to be a bug. You can open a case with our support team and provide them with a detailed explanation so they can reproduce it.

Thanks
