a very easy subject, but can help you as a guide to identify an execution problem with tasks scheduled in the crontab. Today an Indian's friend ask https://duckopensource.com/2014/08/09/cron-root-error-failed-to-open-pam-security-session-success/ me why his task attributed on crontab was not running as desired. I http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/31117/frustrating-issue-where-neither-cron-nor-su-c-runs-my-job-permissions did what every(or not hehe) System administrator would do. I mean, I checked the logs and found an error : [root@HOSTNAME ~]# tail -f /var/log/cronMay 9 10:30:01 HOSTNAME crond[13870]: CRON (root) ERROR: failed to open PAM security session: SuccessMay 9 10:30:01 HOSTNAME crond[13870]: CRON (root) ERROR: cannot set security contextMay not allowed 9 10:40:01 HOSTNAME crond[14893]: Authentication token is no longer valid; new one requiredMay 9 10:40:01 HOSTNAME crond[14893]: CRON (root) ERROR: failed to open PAM security session: SuccessMay 9 10:40:01 HOSTNAME crond[14893]: CRON (root) ERROR: cannot set security context If you noticed there is a number after crond which identify the process that tried to execute. Then there is a CRON(XXXXX), where XXXXX is the user name failed to open which has the crontab configured. And then the error… The error is very easy, if you noticed what it is saying you will understand that it is related to PAM SECURITY SESSION, it means that it is related to the user id. Since we have the process id which was executed on the crond, we will be able to find more information about what is wrong with the user. Below I got the process ID (13870) and did a grep on the PAM Logs (/var/log/secure). [root@HOSTNAME ~]# cat /var/log/secure | grep -i 13870May 9 10:30:01 HOSTNAME crond[13870]: pam_unix(crond:account): expired password for user root (password aged) Done, this is the root cause… The password is expired and we have to change the password.

I've set up a cron script and I'm trying to debug why it's not running. [Snipped context testing, which is all ok; see revision 2 for details] The command itself, in case it helps, (arrows indicate line-wrapping for legibility) is: /usr/bin/php -C /etc /path/to/process.php ↪ >>/path/to/stdout.log 2>>/path/to/stderr.log [Snipped permissions testing, which is all ok; see below and revision 2 for details] Checking crontab (again, wrapped for legibility), I get: [blackero@XXXXXXXXXXX to]$ sudo crontab -u cronuser -l MAIL="blackero@localhost" 30 9 * * * cronuser /usr/bin/php -C /etc /path/to/process.php ↪ >>/path/to/stdout.log 2>>/path/to/stderr.log 20 18 7 * * cronuser /usr/bin/php -C /etc /path/to/process.php ↪ >>/path/to/stdout.log 2>>/path/to/stderr.log 22 18 7 * * cronuser echo "Test" > /path/to/test.txt ↪ 2> /path/to/error.txt Update #1 at 2012-02-08 12:32 Z [Snip: Having tried derobert's suggestion (revision 3)], I know that the cronuser can run the script properly and can write to the two .log files. (One of the first things the process.php script does is download a file by FTP; it is successfully doing that too.) But, even after fixing the MAIL="" line (both by removing it and by changing it to MAILTO="blackero@localhost"), the cron task still doesn't run, nor
