Hi cygwinners,
please, I have a problem in starting cron on an nt4.0.
I have installed the cron service using the srvany from the res.kit.
However, when I from a bash or cmd shell issue the command:
myuser@myserver /bin$ net start cron
I get the following error:
The service is not responding to the control function.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2186.
At the same time the following entry is generated in the EventLog:
The cron service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a
timely fashion.
What could be wrong?
Registry, env. vars, permissions, passwd, group?
Regards,
