Hello to everyone...

Red Hat 6.2

How do I find out what is wrong with cron? From January 15th until today cron is not working... My (oracle's) crontab file HAS not changed...

So I went to the /var/log/cron file. Last activity was on January 15th. Since then no activity has been recorderd.

If I issue "crontab <my crontab file>" and afterwards "crontab -l", there are lines

oracle (02/04-11:37:14-7686) REPLACE (oracle) oracle (02/04-11:37:17-7690) LIST (oracle)

My job was scheduled on 11:40, however job wasn't executed.

How do I see whether cron is running or not?

Thanks
