New: cronstamp jobs are not performed with bumped version of dcron
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=14356
Bug ID: 14356
Summary: cronstamp jobs are not performed with bumped version
of dcron
Product: buildroot
Version: 2021.02.7
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P5
Component: Other
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]Target Milestone: ---
Since we have integrated the commit 8a0d4e6a which bumps dcron to a non released version, we have noticed that the cronstamp jobs are not executed. The timestamp of the files in /var/spool/cron/cronstamps/ directory are not updated.
If we revert the commit and get back to version 4.5 of dcron, the jobs are working nominally.

--- Comment #1 from Dominique Tronche <[email protected]> --- I forgot to say that the dcron process is running and no error message is displayed when run in debug mode

Tested on RPi Zero 2W (buildroot master, configs/raspberrypizero2w_defconfig), both dcron-4.5 and dcron-1ba33c3325df48de46263276a43ed76cf9d81518 create the files in /var/spool/cron/cronstamps and simple dcron jobs work (echo date >> /home/test/out.log)...
Just added (but works without too):
mkdir -p /var/spool/cron/crontabs
mkdir -p /var/spool/cron/cronstamps
to /etc/init.d/S90dcron startup file...
Anything special with your crontab files? Can your provide an example?

--- Comment #4 from Dominique Tronche <[email protected]> --- We only have a logrotate script in /etc/cron.daily. Has you can see in the snapshot the timestamp of the cronstamps file are not updated. root.sys-hourly should be updated every hour

Any updates on this one? I can confirm the changed behavior/failure for the default /etc/cron.d/system @hourly entry (did not run the test longer), can confirm that the offending commit seems to be [1] (upstream issue already exists [2], dating back to May 2018)...
