#177 closed defect (fixed)

Postfix is necessary to run user cron jobs on ufosrv1

Description

Cronjobs defined with crontab -e by normal user accounts are not executed and this messages is output:

Jan 31 00:00:01 ufosrv1 cron[1770]: postdrop: warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory

A quick search revealed, that Postfix must be running which is not the case on ufosrv1. Unfortunately, this will fill /var/mail/root pretty quick.

I need cron to run user jobs, so this is pretty urgent to me.

Have you already fixed it? I just checked and cron seems to work for csa user.

Weird. I haven't fixed it but the Postfix+cron problem seems to be gone and everything is called as expected. Things are running now for me, so I'll close this.
