Description Mark Janssen 2005-01-19 14:06:58 UTC 
When I execute crontab -e and edit crontab, I get this:
23:05:42 Could not exec /usr/bin fcronsighup: No such file or directory

I found fcronsighup as /usr/sbin/fcronsighup instead.

Fixed. Thanks for the report.

Mr.Walker,

you fixed 2.9.5.1, but forgot to touch -r2.

*sigh*

Actually 2.9.5.1 never had this problem, but -r1.  Either I didn't fix it correctly the first time, or somehow the change got reverted, although I doubt the latter :/

This is really fixed this time; sorry for the inconvenience.

Fun fact, this bug happened again last week! With fcron 3.1.2-r1! It is 2013 now!

And it results in » fcrontab -e « allowing you to edit the file, but not affecting anything. Not even after a fcron restart. :(
