Crontab 不自动重启服务

Crontab 不自动重启服务

我正在尝试使用 crontab 每五分钟自动重启 smokeping(用于特定测试),但不幸的是,它似乎不起作用。

> sudo crontab -e
 ...

#Restart smokeping every five minutes
*/5 * * * * service smokeping restart

我做错了什么? syslog 上没有信息。

它不起作用的原因是 cron 的默认值PATH是硬编码的,它看起来像这样:

#ifndef _PATH_DEFPATH
# define _PATH_DEFPATH "/usr/bin:/bin"
#endif

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/cron/blob/52bacc70b592d354efff8231375bf2d51bd4ef52/pathnames.h#L77

更具体地说,service无法找到该命令。如果您尝试执行,which service您将得到类似以下内容: 这就是为什么在 crontab 中/usr/sbin/service 明确设置变量可能会有所帮助的原因。PATH

完整的 crontab 示例如下:

# Edit this file to introduce tasks to be run by cron.
# 
# Each task to run has to be defined through a single line
# indicating with different fields when the task will be run
# and what command to run for the task
# 
# To define the time you can provide concrete values for
# minute (m), hour (h), day of month (dom), month (mon),
# and day of week (dow) or use '*' in these fields (for 'any').# 
# Notice that tasks will be started based on the cron's system
# daemon's notion of time and timezones.
# 
# Output of the crontab jobs (including errors) is sent through
# email to the user the crontab file belongs to (unless redirected).
# 
# For example, you can run a backup of all your user accounts
# at 5 a.m every week with:
# 0 5 * * 1 tar -zcf /var/backups/home.tgz /home/
# 
# For more information see the manual pages of crontab(5) and cron(8)
# 
# m h  dom mon dow   command

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin
