I have not received the /scripts/upcp cron email for a few days now. I do receive the logwatch and bfd and backup emails but not this one...any suggestions:

This is my crontab -e output

*/15 * * * * /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/bin/dnsqueue > /dev/null 2>&1
2,58 * * * * /usr/local/bandmin/bandmin
0 0 * * * /usr/local/bandmin/ipaddrmap
0 6 * * * /scripts/exim_tidydb > /dev/null 2>&1
0 23 * * * /scripts/upcp
0 2 * * * /scripts/cpbackup
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/cpanel/bin/dcpumon >/dev/null 2>&1



This is the output of pico -w /var/log/cron

Did anyone get to the bottom of this? Same thing has been happening on my machine.

service crond restart

if the output looks like this:



Then crond had stoped previously, sometimes this happens after an auto cpanel update.

Doing a cron restart took care of the problem. Thanks!

pleasure.

In my case, restarting cron did not work but adding this to crontab took care of the problem.
