Hi all,


I've got a strange issue with cron. I try to run a simple script that
calls tar to backup my wiki. I can run the script using sudo, it runs
fine from an entry in cron.d but refuses to run after being dropped
into cron.daily. It's owned by root:root and chmodded 755 just like
the other entries in cron.daily. Anyone got some insight on what
might be causing this strange behavior?



Check the run-parts man page to make sure the filename is ok.

Thanks, that helped, had to remove the .sh extention.
