Hi jeyasee,

Pls check the cron process it available or not.it should be active at all time.

# ps -ef|grep cron

No cron job is running

Can only really suggest a reboot to see whether this sorts cron out. Is this possible? HTH.

Before rebooting, just try stopping and starting cron. Look in your startup scripts /etc/rc2.d for the S**cron entry.

Trunix is quite correct. You may have to issue an /etc/rc2.d/Snncron stop and and an /etc/rc2.d/Snncron start to get it to work, however. Good luck.
